The Dallas Stars and Anaheim Ducks will meet at the Honda Center both riding four-game winning streaks. Stellar goaltending has been the key for both teams, with Kari Lehtonen coming in with a 1.58 GAA for Dallas, just besting Jonas Hiller's 1.71 average. Hiller missed almost the entire second half of the 2010 season but the team still managed to finish fourth in the Western Conference. With a resurgence, the Ducks hope to regain their Stanley Cup-contending form.
