According to sports.yahoo.com, the Dallas Stars are preparing to leave their current downtown location for a new hockey-specific arena in Plano. Team officials confirmed Tuesday that they signed a nonbinding letter of intent to construct the venue and an associated entertainment district. This move is scheduled to occur five years after the expiration of the lease at the American Airlines Center, which the Stars have shared with the NBA's Dallas Mavericks since 2001. The announcement follows reports that the Mavericks have reached a preliminary agreement regarding a site for their own new arena.
