Four games in six days is tough for any hockey team, but it’s even tougher when you are on the road. But the Dallas Stars found a way to grin and bear just that.
The Stars returned to Dallas late Saturday night after a gritty but untimely 2-1 overtime loss to the Philadelphia Flyers. It was only the second OT loss of the season for Dallas and pushed them to a record of 18-14-2 with 38 points.
That 38 points has them sitting in the second wild card spot in the Western Conference playoff race. It’s not the best place to be, but it’s not a bad place either.
