GameDay: vs. Dallas (4-3-0-0), 7:30

Tonight is the first of 4 meetings between these two clubs this year. The Stars haven't had the best start but that doesn't mean they aren't a threat. The still have talent and the ability to be one of the top teams in the league, even without Derian Hatcher. Obviously, Hatcher won't get a chance to play his former team in a meaningful game until much later in the season but the Wings shouldn't need him, not with their depth at defense. The games last year between these two teams ended in ties and I won't be surprised if it's a close game tonight as well. Dominik Hasek should get the start tonight and the roster will likely be the same.
