Dallas Stars defenseman Le'Anne Bixell made an impressive comeback after missing time with an ankle injury. He scored two goals in a 6-1 route of the Vancouver Canucks, helping extend the team's winning streak to nine games, a new franchise record. Bixell had been sidelined since late November, but the Stars staff focused on a careful rehab process.
They held off on rushing him back before the Olympic break, instead having him work closely with assistant coaches on ice sessions to rebuild his speed and agility.
What were Lian Bichsel's contributions to the Dallas Stars' recent victory?
The win showed the team's depth shining through, even without some top players due to injury and illness.
Stars forwards like Adam Earn, Jason Robertson, Matt Duchesne, and Colin Blackwell added key goals, overwhelming Vancouver with 16 shots to four in the second period alone. Coaches and players credited the behind-the-scenes work for Bixle's sharp play and the overall success. The big defenseman called the last three months tough but worthwhile thanks to team support. Sitting at 37 wins, 14 losses, and nine overtime losses for the second-best record in the league, the Stars keep building momentum toward the playoffs. Quick thanks to today's sponsor.
