1/84 🆚 St. Louis Blues 📍 @AACenter ⏰ 8:00pm CT 📺 TNT 📲 Dallas Stars app 🎟️ https://t.co/OX9XXcZ0ud https://t.co/CjaIy46 Via @DallasStars on X

What happened: Puck drop is set for 8 p.m. CT in Dallas, with TNT carrying the broadcast. The game is the season debut for both teams.

Why it matters: It gives St. Louis a third crack at Dallas after 2-1 losses on Sept. 19 and Sept. 21. Another tight result would underline how little has separated the two clubs so far this preseason.

By the numbers: Dallas won the last two head-to-head meetings, 2-1 on Sept. 19 in St. Louis and 2-1 on Sept. 21 in Dallas. Both games were decided by one goal, with three total goals scored in each.

What to watch: Watch whether the third meeting breaks the 2-1 pattern from the first two games or stays on the same one-goal track.
