The 2020–21 Dallas Stars season is the 54th season for National Hockey League franchise that was established on June 5, 1967, and the 28th season since the franchise relocated from Minnesota prior to the start of the 1993–94 NHL season. On December 20, 2020, the league temporarily realigned into four divisions with no conferences due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the ongoing closure of the Canada-United States border. As a result of this realignment, the Stars will remain in the Central Division this season and will play games against only the other teams in their realigned division during the regular season and potentially the first two rounds of the playoffs.

The Stars experienced a COVID-19 outbreak during training camp, with 17 team members testing positive. The team's first four games were postponed.[1] The Stars finally began the season on a high note eight days late on January 22, 2021, with a 7-0 rout of the Nashville Predators.
