The Team
The Stars franchise played its first game in Dallas in front of a sellout crowd on Oct. 5, 1993 and are members of the Central Division of the Western Conference of the National Hockey League. Since their arrival, the Dallas Stars have made 18 postseason appearances and captured eight division championships, two Presidents’ Trophies, and won the Stanley Cup making them one of the most successful sports franchises in Dallas. Their continued success on the ice and in their community has grown deep roots and fostered a true love for the game of hockey in Dallas, Texas.
