Dallas is ridiculous right now but this is a defensive league. Eventually they will cool down and come back to earth. Whether it be now, mid season, playoffs or whenever. They will come back down to earth with their defense.
I don't think they fall that far though; they are really solid right now. Klingberg has been a huge difference maker for them on the backend and is developing quickly into a real #1 blueline option. Puck Daddy had a good article on him and the Stars recently.

We'll see; really think DAL will be in the #2-4 range in the division come season end.
