The Dallas Stars will wrap-up the nightmare that history books will call "2016-2017" tonight.
Then Sunday might be quiet. Monday and Tuesday will bring the exit interviews. The ceremonial "cleaning" of the lockers.
And then...?
Well, who knows? After all, when the Dallas Stars make news no one ever reports that it might be coming.
Before the faithful (but angry) horde gets its blood, however, there must be 60 more minutes. And just the 60 will do, thank you. What the injury ninja might do with the extra five as a closing act is something best left to morbid and disturbed imaginations such as yours truly's.
