About the Stars: Dallas, its playoff hopes gone to start the week, continues its limp to the finish with five games left, with the final two road games this weekend. Stars left wing Curtis McKenzie is recovering from a high stick in Thursday’s 2-0 loss at Boston. McKenzie “has a deep gash around his eye, but right now it doesn’t look like there is any permanent eye damage,” Stars GM Jim Nill said, via the Stars website.
