Yes, it's Movie Night, which means Anaheim at Dallas (9 pm Eastern, Center Ice) gets the call. The Stars took on some bruises last week in Southern California, losing to both the Los Angeles Kings and the Anaheim Ducks.
Let's see if there is some manner of payback on the table for the Stars, who are 13th overall in the Western Conference. It's also a battle of some pretty unimaginative uniforms. Dallas has reached the pinnacle of boring, having successfully removed nearly all the traces of green from its home black uniform.
Placing Dallas on the front of your uniform just says bush league to me. I'm only going to mention briefly how brilliant the old North Stars logo and colors used to look on the screen. These Dallas uniforms? Trash. I don't need a cartoon logo, either. Just a traditional crest and some color on those uniforms.
The Ducks? Well it looks as if they took their clothing cues from the San Diego Padres of the 1980s. They're great if you are handing out hot dogs at Der Wienerschnitzel, but not for baseball and definitely not for hockey.
Almost makes me long for the mighty men of jade and eggplant uniforms. I said almost.
Thanks for stopping by.
