Eight. That seems to be the magic number right now. Its the number of games the Dallas Stars have lost in a row. Coincidentally, its the same number of playoff series in which the Stars have lost the opening game. In a row. After game one, I jokingly tweeted about it:
Death, taxes and the Stars losing game 1 of a playoff series

Problem is this isn’t a joke anymore. And every Stars fan can agree that losing isn’t fun. Especially when the team played so well for the first 70 games of the season.
