Dallas Stars Facts and History
The Minnesota North Stars were founded as an expansion team in 1967, playing their games at the newly-constructed Metropolitan Sports Center (the "Met Center") in Bloomington, adjacent to Metropolitan Stadium. By the early nineties, declining attendance and the inability to secure a new downtown, revenue-generating stadium led team owner Norm Green to move the team to Dallas's Reunion Arena. After 26 mediocre years in Minnesota the North Stars moved to Dallas becoming the Stars after flittering with the notion of the name Lone Stars. On October 5th the State of Texas finally had a NHL team of its own, after years of Minor League Hockey and the WHA's Houston Aeros, as the Stars beat the Detroit Red Wings at Reunion Arena 6-4. The Stars would go on to have a solid first season in Dallas as Mike Modano scored 50 goals with the Stars finishing in 3rd place in the Central Division with a solid 42-29-13. In the playoffs the Stars got off to a fast start sweeping the St. Louis Blues in 4 straight games. However, in the 2nd round they would be upset by the Vancouver Canucks in 5 games.
