Patrick Sharp is getting ready to face Minnesota in a playoff series Adam Snyder Jerseyfor the fourth year in a row. It will be the first for the Dallas Stars, the franchise with roots in the Twin Cities.

Known as the North Stars before moving south to Dallas in 1993, the Stars are the top seed in the Western Conference. They open their first-round series at home Thursday night against the Wild, the team that eventually replaced them in Minnesota.

''I'm sure it means http://www.footballgiantsprostore.com/Andre-Williams-Jerseysomething to the fans,'' Stars center Jason Spezza said. ''For us as players, it's a little different generation for us, we weren't directly involved in it.''

Spezza and Sharp were acquired in trades the past two offseasons, and with the high-scoring young All-Star duo of Jamie Benn and Tyler Seguin helped lead Dallas to its first No. 1 seed since 2003.

The Wild, in their 15th season since entering the NHL as an expansion team, are hurting going into http://www.footballgiantsprostore.com/Antrel-Rolle-Jerseytheir fourth consecutive playoff appearance. Top scorer Zach Parise (25 goals) won't even travel for the first two games because of an upper-body injury that has kept him off the ice for more than a week.

''It changes lines and the combinations we have and special teams. In every area of the game, it will have an effect,'' center Mikko Koivu said. ''But if he's in, if he's not, then we've got to react to that as a team and go from there.''

The Wild will also be without Thomas Vanek (18 goals) while Erik Haula, Khiry RobinsonJerseya solid third-line center who defends well, will likely be a game-time decision.

When the Stars won their only Stanley Cup title in 1999, they beat Buffalo and Lindy Ruff, now their third-year coach. Sharp was part of his third Stanley Cup championship last season with the Chicago Blackhawks.

The Stars won four of five meetings this season against Minnesota, three in overtime http://www.saintsshopnfl.com/Authentic-Kyle-Wilson-Jerseyalong with a 6-3 win that included two empty-net goals - among the Stars' NHL-record 24 empty-netters and NHL-best 265 goals overall this season. Minnesota's victory was 2-1.

But the last of those games was Feb. 9, before the Wild fired Mike Yeo and named John Torchetti the interim coach.

''Their defense is involved a little bit more ... Offensively, I think they've got a little bit more giddy-up and go in them,'' Ruff said. ''There's going to be some structure changes for them and there might be personnel that are in or out. The playoffs, I wipe the slate clean and you start from Game 1.''
