The Texas Stars lost two good soldiers to the big leagues this morning. Early on Monday, the Dallas Stars announced that they recalled defenseman Julius Honka and goaltender Mike McKenna from the AHL.
The two players have both played extensive time with Texas this year. Honka has played eight games for Texas this year after being sent down by Dallas in late October. McKenna has played in 12 different games in the crease for Texas.
Honka has yet to tally a point this season in a combined 14 games in both NHL and AHL play.
