On July 4 2013, Tyler Seguin was traded to the Dallas Stars.

Since the jersey #19 has been retired by the Stars, Seguin changed his number to 91 when he joined Dallas.  He ended the 2013 – 2014 season ranked fourth in total points scored, setting a new career-high in goals (37) and points (84) from 80 games.

During the 2014 – 2015 NHL season, Seguin scored 37 goals to go with 40 assists, reaching the 30-goal mark for the second consecutive season.

Here is an interesting fact, As the result of one of his best friends suffering a severe spinal cord injury in December 2012, Seguin founded Seguin’s Stars upon arriving in Dallas. At every Stars home game during the season, Seguin donated a luxury suite, along with food and beverage, for individuals with spinal cord injuries. At the conclusion of every game, Seguin met his guests outside of the Stars’ locker room for autographs and pictures
