Stars Lineup

Star scorer Tyler Seguin, who has played just once since March 17 (he attempted to come back from an Achilles injury to play in Game 2 of the Stars’ first-round series against Minnesota, but ended up getting hurt again), will miss at least the first two games of the Blues series. While Jamie Benn is perhaps the most dynamic offensive weapon in the league and Jason Spezza is an absolute stud, Seguin is an irreplaceable part of what Dallas does, so it should be interesting to see how they operate against an aggressive, physical team like the Blues.
