Every season, the NHL schedule makers like to throw in something that makes you go “well that’s different”. This year, it was waiting until March to schedule every single game between the San Jose Sharks and the Dallas Stars.
How nice of them to give me a bonus match-up on my birthday, no less.
The last time these two teams met (in the olden days of 96 hours ago...) the Stars poured on a defensive effort unlike anything we’ve seen this season, locking down a 1-0 win. Many believe they outplayed the Blackhawks last night in their 3-2 shootout loss.
