(Sports Network) - The Dallas Stars try to end a winless spell during the month of March when the struggling squad visits the Scottrade Center tonight for a battle with the St. Louis Blues.
Dallas has dropped each of its first three games in March and suffered a disappointing home defeat to fellow Pacific Division contender San Jose its last time out. Evgeni Nabokov stopped all 26 shots he faced to lead the Sharks to a 4-0 victory Sunday at the American Airlines Center.
With the win, San Jose vaulted past the Stars and into second place in the Pacific standings. Dallas is now one point behind the Sharks and tied with Calgary for the sixth spot in the Western Conference playoff race.
The Stars, who are a solid 17-12-3 on the road, have not lost four consecutive games since March 27-April 2, 2004.
