The Dallas Stars are set to host the Colorado Avalanche in a crucial Central Division matchup on Friday. After two consecutive losses, the Stars aim to regain their footing against a Colorado team that recently triumphed over the Vegas Golden Knights.

Both teams have had mixed results against division rivals this season, with Dallas holding a slight edge. Key players to watch include Tyler Seguin for the Stars and Cale Makar for the Avalanche, both of whom have impressive statistics against their upcoming opponents.
