The team would go on to lose the first eight games in May, extending their losing streak to fourteen straight games. During that streak, there was an overtime loss to Chicago and a four-point loss at Dallas. The Stars won their first game of the season on June 30th, in a rematch with Chicago. The team went on to win two out of its nine games in July, defeating Indiana at home and on the road. Six of their seven losses in the month were by double-digits.

However, they lost four straight games before winning the final game of the season, at Indiana. Their 5–5 finish to the season saw them finish with a final mark of 8–26.
