The Dallas Stars season continues to lurch toward the finale with no end to what has been a bewildering, sometimes scary injury bug among the forwards.
Curtis McKenzie was on the scary end of that spectrum last night as he took an inadvertent yet extremely nasty high stick that caused a ton of blood from around one of his eyes. While Lindy Ruff was somewhat optimistic the eye itself had been spared after the game, McKenzie was flown back to Dallas today with instructions for no activities for at least five days and follow ups with specialists ahead.
