About the Stars: Their hopes of reaching the postseason take a serious dent with each loss. Currently tied for 11th in the Western Conference, Dallas has three teams and seven points to overcome just to sniff the eighth and final seed. Center Tyler Seguin blasted in a power-play goal for the Stars’ only score in Tuesday’s 3-1 loss at Toronto. It was his 20th goal of the season and the fifth time in seven seasons he’s reached that mark, including the last four.
