Ken Hitchcock considers himself an expert on the Stars -- and not just because he used to coach here.

Hitchcock was the St. Louis Blues' bench boss for all five games against the Stars this season, plus two in the preseason. He coached against them for seven games in the playoffs last year, plus five during the regular season and two in the preseason.

"Nobody has coached more against this team in the past two years than me, more than 20 games, so I think I have a pretty good handle on what they have here, and I like it a lot," Hitchcock said.
