Toronto welcomes the Texas Stars this weekend

On Saturday afternoon, after a very long layoff for the Marlies, the AHL playoffs start up again, and the Marlies are in the Calder Cup Final facing the Texas Stars. Who is this team from Texas? Do they have any stars?

The Stars are, of course, the AHL affiliate of the Dallas Stars. They don’t play in the whole state of Texas either, they play in a suburb of Austin. (That looks like it’s spelled wrong for some reason.)

The Stars are a team very similar to the Marlies.
