The NHL lockout has FINALLY ended, so it looks like we might have a hockey season after all!

THANK GOODNESS!!

Not that we’re a big hockey fan, but maybe the Stars will have a better season than the rest of our teams!

And if they don’t, at least it’ll be a short season…

We’re being told that the Stars will start playing in the next two weeks, so go keep an eye on their schedule at dallasstars.com.

Until then, we’ll just have to hang our hopes on the Mavs… even though they lost to the Jazz last night, 99 to 96.

They’re back at the AAC this Saturday night to play the Memphis Grizzlies, and you can look for those tickets at mavs.com.
