TEXAS! Land of the longhorn steer, high school football, oil, tex-mex cuisine, and our next opponent, the [Dallas Stars](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/dallas-stars?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com). The Leafs are still on the road, giving up their rink to [William Nylander](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/players/246220/william-nylander?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) and a bunch of other kids, and after a 4-0 shutout by Chicago, they arrive in the heart of the biggest state\* to stem this pesky losing streak., annnnd maybe not be outscored 3:1 as they're averaging this batch of losses.

[Tyler Seguin](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/players/111518/tyler-seguin?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) leads the Stars in Goals and Points, [James Neal](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/players/55188/james-neal?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) leads in Assists and we should see [Kari Lehtonen](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/players/54786/kari-lehtonen?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) in net for the Stars. Our Leafs looked like this in their early skate:

Robidas is in for Holzer, Bernier Starts.

The game is at 6PM local time in Dallas, because we demand a 7PM game here in Toronto and when it comes to the NHL, what Rogers wants, Rogers gets.

Normally I'd make fun of the opponents sweaters, but I must say, the Stars are looking pretty sharp lately. Going back to green was a huge leap forward for them after regressing hard in the jersey department, as I said about the [Ducks](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/anaheim-ducks?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com), wordmarks suck.

Now I'm off to watch a buttload of Friday Night Lights to get into the mood.
