The Texas Stars are dead-locked with two Milwaukee and Manitoba for the fourth and final playoff spot in the Central division. With five games left to play in the regular season, there are plenty of reasons for optimism. However, the Rockford IceHogs would disagree that this is currently a three-team race.
As the Stars prepare to take on Rockford in a weekend pair beginning on Friday, the IceHogs are merely one point behind the Stars in the standings and have to be thinking four points on their trip to Cedar Park.
