Fistric doubtful, Woywitka in

Mark Fistric is doubtful for the game tonight and might not even skate in the pre-game.

Severin Blindenbacher flew in this morning and will skate in the pre-game skate because Karlis Skrastins also is a little sore.

My guess is they will go with Woywitka and that Skrastins will be ready to play.

That means Blindenbacher could just watch from the press box.

That said, the Stars still believe it will be a good experience for him.

``We're not sure where Mark Fistric is, so it's not bad to have him around,'' GM Joe Nieuwendyk said. ``He's excited to be here, so it's good just for him to be around our club.''

Blindenbacher, the Swiss defenseman who signed with the Stars as an unrestricted free agent in the summer, has one goal and three assists in eight games for Texas (AHL). He missed several games with a concussion he suffered in a car accident.

Stars coach Marc Crawford said he would make some decisions after the pre-game skate.
