Game 12 Preview: Dallas@Bruins SEAN AVERY NIGHT

Nov 1, 2008 7PM ET

On TV: NESN
On the Radio: WBZ 1050
vs. Dallas Stars
Notes:

• My family's from Minnesota, so I'll always hate the Stars.
• The Stars are depressing, apparently.
• This begins a 3-game homestand that's part of 8-of-13 games that the Bruins are playing at home in November.
• Zdeno Chara hasn't been producing very well so far. I just want him to stop taking stupid penalties. Sean Avery is good at drawing those. Watch out.
  
• The Stars made it to the Western Conference Finals last year.
• Thomas in Net. Manny Fernandez is an expensive backup goalie.
• Sturm has been dropped to the third line with Krejci and Wheeler. That's an exciting, talented line to have. Could be just what Sturm needs to get back on his game.
• Turco in Net. He's been slumping so far this year.
• Mike Modano has a website. He's also married to Willa Ford.
