The last time the Dallas Stars met the Detroit Red Wings, the Stars were flying high en route to a perfect 4-0-0 start to the season. The power play was humming, the forwards were scoring, and the defending was in typical form.
How the mighty have fallen.
The Stars now find themselves sitting at sixth place in the Discover Central Division, a mere three points ahead of the cellar-dwelling Detroit Red Wings. Over the last 10 games the Red Wings and Stars have each recorded 10 points, albeit in different fashions. To make matters a bit more difficult for the Stars, the Red Wings are a far better home team than they are a road team.
