Dallas Stars News & Notes:

This matchup is a crucial win for the Stars, with the Avalanche chasing them in the standings and Minnesota only a point above them, this game has a significant impact on the standings. Two points against a divisional opponent pays dividends in March.

Colorado Avalanche News & Notes:

Colorado has been plagued with injuries all season, if they can continue to put up points as they get healthy or make deadline addions, they’ll be in a good spot. The Avalanche are 2-3 in their last 5 games and have a tough stretch of opponents coming up. Including three straight Central Division showdowns.
