The Stars are coming off a 5-4 overtime win over Detroit on Monday. The Stars overcame deficits of 2-0, 3-1 and 4-3 to win the game.
"I like the way our guys hung in there. We kept playing aggressively and got pucks to the net and the last play was the definition of aggressive," said Stars coach Dave Tippett.
The Stars outshot the Red Wings 49-30 in the game and three of their goals came their defensemen.
Injuries: RW Fabian Brunnstrom (ankle), RW Landon Wilson (ribs), D Sergei Zubov (hip) and LW Brenden Morrow (knee) are out.
The Sabres dropped their second straight game, losing 4-1 in Chicago Wednesday night. The Sabres were 0-7 on the power play in the game and missed on a six minute power play in the second period when Chicago was up 3-1.
The Sabres have scored just three goals in their last three games.
This is the first and only meeting between the two teams this season.
