Dallas has won seven consecutive games dating back to Jan. 23 and has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dallasnews.com\/sports\/stars\/2026\/02\/27\/dallas-stars-glen-gulutzan-mikko-rantanen-injury-update-wyatt-johnston-joe-pavelski\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer nofollow noopener\" title=\"https:\/\/www.dallasnews.com\/sports\/stars\/2026\/02\/27\/dallas-stars-glen-gulutzan-mikko-rantanen-injury-update-wyatt-johnston-joe-pavelski\/\">thrust itself back into the Central Division race<\/a>, sitting six points behind the Avalanche and one point behind the Wild.<\/p>\n<p class=\"body-text-paragraph\">Stars defenseman Thomas Harley is on a streak of his own, recording nine points in his last nine games and has extended his point streak to four games with a two-assist outing against Seattle on Wednesday. A point Saturday against Nashville would extend his streak to five games, which would set a new career best for the young defenseman.<\/p>\n<p>Key opponent to watch<\/p>\n<p class=\"body-text-paragraph\">Keep an eye on Ryan O\u2019Reilly, a star forward who leads the team with 57 points so far this season. He\u2019s tallied six points over his last four games and leads all NHL skaters with 39 takeaways.<\/p>\n<p class=\"body-text-paragraph\">The 35-year-old forward has a long history against the Stars, as he has spent most of his 17-year career with the Avalanche, Blues and Predators, each of which are in the Central Division. In 54 career games vs. Dallas, O\u2019Reilly has 41 points, good for eighth among all active NHL skaters against the Stars.<\/p>\n<p class=\"body-text-paragraph\">One more reason to keep an eye on him: He\u2019s a trade target to watch for the Stars. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/athletic\/7074080\/2026\/02\/26\/nhl-trade-deadline-stamkos-oreilly-kadri\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer nofollow noopener\" title=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/athletic\/7074080\/2026\/02\/26\/nhl-trade-deadline-stamkos-oreilly-kadri\/\">The Athletic\u2019s Pierre LeBrun wrote on Thursday<\/a> that the Stars, Avalanche and Wild are among the teams interested in O\u2019Reilly.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"dmnc_features-article-body-embeds-subject-tag-list-only-list-only-module__BZO7y link-blue\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dallasnews.com\/sports\/stars\/2026\/02\/27\/dallas-stars-glen-gulutzan-mikko-rantanen-injury-update-wyatt-johnston-joe-pavelski\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Stars\u2019 Glen Gulutzan gives Mikko Rantanen update, inside tip on Wyatt Johnston\u2019s hot start<\/a><a class=\"dmnc_features-article-body-embeds-subject-tag-list-only-list-only-module__BZO7y link-blue\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dallasnews.com\/sports\/stars\/2026\/02\/27\/stars-tyler-seguin-will-miss-rest-of-season-including-playoffs-with-torn-acl\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Stars\u2019 Tyler Seguin will miss rest of season, including playoffs, with torn ACL<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"body-text-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dallasnews.com\/sports\/stars\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Find more Stars coverage from The Dallas Morning News here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Dallas Stars will look to keep their momentum going Saturday night when they welcome the Nashville Predators&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":476367,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5119],"tags":[147,5,2409,231,5281,4,2410,43,197,2392],"class_list":{"0":"post-476366","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-nashville-predators","8":"tag-dallas-stars","9":"tag-hockey","10":"tag-nashville","11":"tag-nashville-predators","12":"tag-nashvillepredators","13":"tag-nhl","14":"tag-predators","15":"tag-sports","16":"tag-stars","17":"tag-thomas-harley"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nhl\/116146197779313441","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/476366","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=476366"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/476366\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/476367"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=476366"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=476366"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=476366"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
