The Stars will host 30 opponents at the American Airlines Center as part of its 2024-25 home slate, featuring 13 within the Central Division, 12 against Pacific Division opponents, and 15 versus Eastern Conference foes, with most games starting at 7 p.m. Central. The Stars will have 19 home weekend dates, including six on Fridays, eight on Saturdays, and six on Sundays.

December will be a home-heavy month for the Stars, who will play nine times at the American Airlines Center, including a season-long, six-game homestand from December 8 to 20. Dallas will be on the road for eight games in January and March 2025. Dallas’ longest road trip will be five games from January 7 to 14, 2025.

The Stars’ additional highlights include a day-after-Thanksgiving game vs. Colorado on November 29, a New Year’s Eve matchup versus Buffalo on December 31, and two visits to Utah on December 2 and 23.
