DALLAS - The Dallas Stars will finally play at the American Airlines Center Friday after a grueling four-game road trip to start the season.

The Stars come in with a 2-2 record when they face the Los Angeles Kings.

It will be the first time since before the pandemic that the stadium will be at full capacity for hockey. It was capped at 50% last season.
