Stars vs. Devils: Dallas faces potential mathematical elimination Sunday

4 p.m. today (FSSW/1310 AM The Ticket)

Storyline

The Devils were mathematically eliminated from the playoffs Saturday in a 3-1 loss to Carolina. Dallas can be mathematically eliminated with a loss today. This is a time for the Stars to look at their depth players, and they called up rookie Jason Dickinson to take the place of Patrick Sharp Saturday. Sharp will have season-ending hip surgery Tuesday. Dickinson, 21, has 30 points (9 goals, 21assists) in 55 games with the Texas Stars this season.

Key match-up

Tyler Seguin vs. Taylor Hall

This is not the game they had in mind when Hall and Seguin were drafted first and second overall in 2010 by Edmonton and Boston.
