Turning points are a common occurrence in the NHL. Whether you’re talking about the Dallas Stars, the 2018-19 St. Louis Blues, or any other team, there’s almost always a point in the regular season where a team shifts for better or worse.
Take the 2018-19 Dallas Stars for example. After starting the year on an average note that had them at 23-21-4 midway through the month of January, Dallas turned on the gas on Jan. 19. It began with a 4-2 win against the Winnipeg Jets and extended into a 20-11-3 run to end the regular season.
