Dallas Stars Set to Face Seattle Kraken on Nov. 9

Dallas, TX – The Dallas Stars are preparing to take on the Seattle Kraken on Sunday, Nov. 9, at 7 p.m. ET. The game will be held at the American Airlines Center and will be broadcast on ESPN+.

The Stars, with a record of 8-4-3, are currently ranked second in the Central Division. They are coming off a 5-4 victory against the Nashville Predators on Saturday. The Kraken, who hold a 7-3-4 record, are also looking to continue their momentum after winning their last game against Anaheim.

In the matchup, Stars defenseman Miro Heiskanen is a key player to watch, recently achieving a career-high four assists in a game. He has 10 points this season and has performed well against the Kraken in his career.

Seattle’s forward Jordan Eberle leads his team with five goals and has scored 10 points so far this season. His performance is crucial as the Kraken look to capitalize on their scoring chances.

Both teams have faced significant roster adjustments since last season. The Stars have seen changes from trades and free agency, including bringing in Mikko Rantanen, who currently leads the Stars with 21 points this season. Conversely, Seattle will be without Joey Daccord due to an upper-body injury, impacting their goaltending.

Stars General Manager Jim Nill commented on the roster changes: “It’s a tough business, and you have to make tough decisions,” regarding the players lost this season, including Mason Marchment and Evgenii Dadonov.

As the game approaches, both teams will aim to establish their offensive strategies, with Seattle struggling in faceoff percentage and Dallas aiming to bounce back after a dip in power-play performance.
