The Dallas Stars will kick off game #42 tonight, officially passing the half-way mark of the season. They’re currently 22-16-3, and their 47 points has them in the first wild card position in the Western Conference.
It is said that two points in the first half of the season count as much as two points in the second half, but the Stars will need all the points they can get if they want to hold onto a playoff position in one of the toughest divisions in the league.
To play spoiler to getting the second half of the schedule off to a good start for the Stars are the New Jersey Devils.
