The Dallas Stars get back to action in their first game after the break, taking on the Ducks in Anaheim. The Ducks got a chance to shake off the rust last night, winning 4-1 at Phoenix.
Stars coach Glen Gulutzan isn't too concerned about the Stars being rusty, since they've have had plenty of ice time to get ready for this game.
"Yesterday was a little bit different than today. Teams (last night) had one practice before they played and we had the luxury of having two full practices and a pregame skate," Gulutzan said. "I am not expecting us to be completely rusty or anything like that. We've had enough time to prepare and get ready. The teams that played yesterday, they had one practice and one pregame, and that practice was in the afternoon, so it was a little tougher for them."
The Stars are healthy and ready to go.
Tonight's projected lineup looks exactly the way the Stars practiced the past couple days. Kari Lehtonen is getting the nod in goal and Gulutzan said a decision on who starts tomorrow night in San Jose will depend on how things go tonight. Jonas Hiller will be in net for the Ducks.
