Stars vs. Avs

As I described earlier, the sports trifecta is truly complete with the start of the NHL regular season. Opening night features my team, the Dallas Stars vs. Colorado Avalanche. It's a repeat game from the play-off series that ended the '05-'06 season for the Stars. Yes, I admit it's hard to cheer for a team that's from shhhhh, "Dallas." So, why am I a Stars fan? As a young girl, I grew up watching (and listening via radio) to the Minnesota North Stars. My 11th and 12th birthdays were spent at the Met Center watching a North Stars game, and being able to name all of the team's players. Maybe it's the green and gold that does it for me!
