Stars to recall Stephan
Well that was quick! Less than a week after sending him to the minor leagues to get playing time, the Dallas Stars plan to recall Tobias Stephan from Bridgeport, Conn., of the American Hockey League. The 25-year old Zurich native will be recalled Feb. 23, Stars co-GM Les Jackson told the Dallas Morning News. Does this mean Stephan, who has started only three games for the Stars, will actually get playing time in Big D?
Stephan started only one game so far for the Bridgeport Sound Tigers, recording 30 saves in a 3-2 victory over the Norfolk Admirals on Saturday, Feb. 7. He’ll have several chances to get more playing time before returning to Dallas. The Sound Tigers play eight times over the next 12 days, starting tonight against San Antonio.
