The have illne s ripping through the team currently, according to head coach Lindy Ruff (via ). One of the players that have been taken down by what is believed to be the flu is leading scorer . The Stars are in Boston tonight to take on Seguins former team, but he is a game-time decision for Tuesday nights tilt.Seguin mi sed the teams morning skate in snow-covered Boston Tuesday morning, but there is still a chance hell be available. :There are three guys that are fighting a little bit of the flu. And Tyler's one of them," Stars coach Lindy Ruff said. "We got a couple other guys that skated that are fighting it. Even our play-by-play guy Ralph Strangis is down and out too. That's when you know it's really hitting you hard."Seguin didnt skate this morning, but Ruff said there is still a chance he could play tonight.There is a po sibility, for sure, Ruff said. He didnt feel well enough to skate this morning. The other two Kelly Olynyk Jersey guys opted to skate. They were feeling better. Well see when he gets here.According to Ruff, the team could move to center on the teams top line if Seguin is out. He would most likely be flanked by rookie and . Seguin is currently tied for the league lead with forward and Philadelphia Flyers forward Jakub Voracek with 59 points. This is probably a game Seguin would not want to mi s, considering his history with the and how well he has been playing this season. Youd have to figure if he feels even the slightest bit better that Seguin will be in the lineup.Not only is it a big game personally for Seguin, but it's a huge one for the Stars. Every game will be pretty big from here on out for Dallas as they look to stay in the playoff race. The club trails the Vancouver Canucks by five points for the last wild card spot in the West and they can't afford to lose anymore ground.Another question might be how many fans end up showing up to the game. Boston is dealing with record-breaking snowfall, transit problems and many residents are still trying to dig out. The NHL confirmed earlier Tuesday that the game would go on as planned despite the conditions. NHL has advised that due to scheduling i sues that don't allow for an alternate date, Stars-Bruins will be played as scheduled tonight.
