In a game that was ultimately meaningless for the standings, Texas closed the season with a 1-0 loss to the visiting Manitoba Moose. The Stars will now head to Grands Rapids to start their playoff run against the Griffins with two away before returning home the first full week of May.
With their playoff position already decided, Texas rested some of their biggest guns. Kyle Capobianco, Cameron Hughes and Justin Hryckowian all took a seat in the press box for game 72.
"The guys in the room [have] outstanding character, really," said Texas head coach Neil Graham postgame.
