About the Stars

The Stars snapped a three-game losing streak with a 3-0 win over the Colorado Avalanche Sunday night in Dallas. Brad Richards had a goal and an assist, Mike Modano had two assists and Marty Turco had a 19-save shutout for the Stars. "The way we played was relentless,'' Turco said. "We're going to need more of the same."  The NHL announced Wednesday that Stars forward Steve Ott has been suspended three games for a hit on Colorado's Jordan Leopold in Sunday's game. The Stars trail first place San Jose by one point in the Pacific Division.

Injuries:  D Philippe Boucher (shoulder) and D Sergei Zubov (groin/foot) are out. C/LW Steve Ott (suspension) is out

About the Red Wings
The Red Wings ran their winning streak to four games with a 3-1 win over Chicago Tuesday night. The streak follows a stretch that saw the Red Wings win just once in eleven games (1-8-2). "We’ve still got to ratchet it up," Detroit coach Mike Babcock said. "It’s nice to see we’ve won four in a row, getting our confidence back, but we still have a long ways to go." Chris Osgood is expected to start in goal for Detroit.

Injuries: C Valtteri Filppula (thigh) and  RW Mikael Samuelsson (neck) are probable. Darren McCarty (ribs) and RW Tomas Holmstrom (groin/abdomen) are doubtful. G Dominik Hasek (back), D Andreas Lilja (flu) and F Daniel Cleary (jaw) are out.
