The Dallas Stars completed the season sweep of the Los Angeles Kings with a 4-1 victory at the American Airlines Center Saturday.

On a rain soaked day in Dallas, Mike Modano returned to the city where he made a name for himself as the greatest player in franchise history to be immortalized in the cityscape outside the American Airlines Center.

Delayed by rain, his statue accented with the iconic green jersey forever associated with his lap around the rink in Buffalo as he hoisted the Stanley Cup was unveiled during the first intermission of the game. Complete with a speech to a packed building full of fans, many wearing his jersey, tears fell as steadily as the rain outside. Memories were relived, and Modano watched as he officially became a part of this city, forever represented in bronze at the edge of PNC Plaza.

By the time that speech finally happened, the Stars had worked the crowd into a frenzy with a 3-0 first period lead against the Los Angeles Kings. Goals from Thomas Harley, Craig Smith and Wyatt Johnston gave Dallas a cushion that would never really get tested for the rest of the game. Johnston's goal was the 50th of his career, and the youngster stayed hot after eclipsing his total from his rookie season Thursday.

Jamie Benn made it 4-0 just 2:30 into the second period, and despite a Kevin Fiala goal in the third, Dallas easily hung on to win 4-1 over the Kings for the second Saturday in a row. Scott Wedgewood was strong in net, just like a week prior in California, stopping 27 shots en route to a much needed victory.

It was undoubtedly Modano's night, but for the Stars, the victory meant Dallas has still never lost three games in a row in regulation under head coach Pete DeBoer. Let's take a look at some key facts from the game:
