DEFENSEMEN

1 – Sergei Zubov
8 – Trevor Daley/Alex Goligoski

Sergei Zubov, the highest scoring defender in Dallas Stars history will take on the winner of a match between two current-era defensemen who longed a lot of time in green, Trevor Daley and Alex Goligoski.

4 – John Klingberg
5 – Stephane Robidas

John Klingberg, the young Swede by whom we are amazed – the sixth-place Norris Trophy finisher – faces a long-time Stars lockdown defenseman, Stephane Robidas.

3 – Darryl Sydor
6 – Craig Ludwig

Puck-moving aficionado Darryl Sydor, who played in three different stints for Dallas totalling 11 years, faces shot-blocking and penalty-killing fan favorite Craig Ludwig.

2 – Derian Hatcher
7 – Richard Matvichuk

Former Stars captain Derian Hatcher, a massive rearguard who was never fazed by opposing forwards, meets Richard Matvichuk, an all-around defensive dynamo.
