FRISCO — Mark your calendars, Stars fans. The team’s Winter Classic jersey will be unveiled Nov. 6, a source told The Dallas Morning News on Wednesday afternoon.

The date would be less than two months until the Stars host the Predators at the Cotton Bowl in the southernmost outdoor game in NHL history, and would also mark the 78th anniversary of the first game of the Dallas Texans.

The Texans debuted in the American Hockey Association in 1941 before World War II forced the league’s cancellation until 1945. The Texans played in the United Stars Hockey League after the war, but ceased playing after the 1948-49 season.

The Stars revealed their Winter Classic logo Sept. 27, an homage to the Texans’ logo that featured a large “D” bisected by the word “Stars,” although with a five-sided star replacing the “A.”

The Winter Classic was played at Notre Dame Stadium last year, but this season’s edition in Dallas is expected to be the second-most attended NHL game in history, behind the game held at Michigan Stadium in 2014. The game is scheduled for Jan. 1 at 1 p.m. and is sold out.

Long, lost practice: For just the second time since the regular season began on Oct. 3, the Stars practiced. Because of a condensed schedule that featured 11 games in 19 days, the team had not practiced since Oct. 11.

“It was about playing fast, and making sure we got touches,” Stars coach Jim Montgomery said. “After the schedule we’ve had and the lack of practice time, wanted to make sure we were being crisp with our passes.”

Stars defenseman Jamie Oleksiak welcomed the team back to practice by shattering a glass pane behind the net in the Comerica Center. The cleanup and repair forced the Stars to move practice to the other ice surface in the building. Oleksiak said it was the first time he’d ever shattered a pane.

Montgomery was asked if he’d ever shattered the glass?

“Have you seen me shoot a puck?” Montgomery said with a laugh. “I just made sure I hit the net and hopefully the goalie made a mistake.”

-- Injured Stars forward Blake Comeau was on the ice before practice began, taking shots on goaltenders Ben Bishop and Anton Khudobin. Comeau suffered a lower-body injury during the first period of opening night against Boston on Oct. 3.

Montgomery said Comeau was 10-14 days from returning. There was no update on defenseman Roman Polak, who fractured his sternum against Boston after crashing into the corner boards.
