Game Notes:

• Daniel Paille is still serving as Brad Marchand's replacement.
• It's the moment we've all been waiting for. Get your menorahs, cigarettes, and marshmallows ready. The Tyler Seguin takes are coming in hot tonight. What's your favorite Seguin take? (extra points if it's spelled "Sequin"). This should satisfy any of your lingering Seguin feels.
• Saturday's 3-1 loss to Columbus appears to be just a minor slip-up following an impressive five-game winning streak. Coach Claude Julien said "I expect us to finish strong here (against Dallas)…it's important for us to come back and play a better game than we did the last one."
• Stars RW Patrick Eaves is questionable after missing 20 games with a lower body injury.

NEVER FORGET:

Quick, shield your eyes.
