The Dallas Stars 2006–07 Season began with the team not too concerned about their rosters. Feeling that they have a good enough team to make the postseason, as they have many times in recent memory, they only made one major acquisition worth noting: Eric Lindros. With Marty Turco still in goal, and Mike Modano and captain Brenden Morrow leading the team, the Stars have qualified for the playoffs for the 4th consecutive season.
