The Stars will finish their season in fifth place in the Western Conference and will have a date with the Anaheim Ducks in the first round of the playoffs. But before then, the Stars will finish their season at home to San Jose and they may continue to rest both Brad Richards (Dale C.) and Mike Ribeiro (Dale B.), who have both missed the last two games. Richards may have been rested more to heal some sore parts of himself and Ribeiro has been out with the flu. Both players are expected to be ready for their first round match-up against the Ducks.Unfortunately for Dallas, it looks as though Sergei Zubov (Chris) will not be available for their last game of the season or the playoff run after undergoing surgery for a sports hernia. There was no indication that Zubov would be made available if the Stars made it really deep into the playoffs either. Sadly, that announcement was made after the Playoff Pool Sheet was finalized.
So here, I will outline the squad going into the playoffs and in bold are the players who will be a part of the Playoff Pool Sheet.
| Brendan Morrow | Mike Ribeiro | Jere Lehtinen |
| Niklas Hagman | Brad Richards | Antti Miettinen |
| Loui Eriksson | Mike Modano | Steve Ott |
| Joel Lundqvist | Stu Barnes | Brandon Crombeen |
| Brad Winchester | Toby Petersen | Krystofer Barch |
| Phillipe Boucher | Stephane Robidas |
| Matt Niskanen | Trevor Daley |
| Mattias Norstrom | Mark Fistric |
| Nicklas Grossman | Sergei Zubov |
| Marty Turco |
| Johan Holmqvist |
The Stars were a very hot team through the late part of the season, which should give them some extra attention for the Playoff Pool.
