Hockey's back for the official 2015-2016 NHL season, so get ready, MstarsNews readers!

The Dallas Stars battle it out on the ice against the Nashville Predators in Week 21 of the regular season on Tuesday, March 1 at 8:00 p.m. EST from the Bridgestone Arena in Tennesse. Read on to see where fans can watch and listen to a live stream of the highly-anticipated Tuesday evening hockey game online and catch up-to-date feeds and coverage on highlight plays and scores.

Now in mid-season, Dallas maintains a rather impressive top spot in Joe McDonald's official NHL power rankings for ESPN.com, while Nashville falls just a bit behind (out of a total 30 teams):

Predators (14): "The play of goalie Pekka Rinne and forward Filip Forsberg gave the Preds a major boost this week. Rinne is 4-0-2 in his past six starts, and Forsberg collected a pair of hat tricks to help Nashville extend its point streak to nine games."     

Record: 31-21-11 (4th in Atlantic Division)

Stars (7): "We've already talked about the possibility of the Blackhawks and Capitals in the Stanley Cup finals, but what about the Stars and Rangers? New York defeated Dallas 3-2 on Saturday to hand the Stars their second consecutive loss."

Record: 38-19-7 (2nd in Central Division).

Tonight's big game will be broadcasted live on local sports channels FSTN and FSW+.
