Question: The 1994–95 Dallas Stars lost the use of which all-time American goals leader for 19 games ?

Context paragraphs:
1994–95 Dallas Stars season: The 1994–95 Dallas Stars season was the 28th season in franchise history and the second in Dallas, Texas.  Injuries to forward Mike Modano caused him to miss 18 games, more than a third of the 48-game regular season, and finished with 29 points (12 goals, 17 assists).  As a result the Stars didn't have the same offensive power they had had in 1993-94, when Modano scored a career-high 50 goals and relied on Dave Gagner to pick up the slack, which he did, leading the team in goals, assists and points.  Despite finishing the season on a 4-game losing streak for a 17-23-8 record, Dallas still scored more goals (136) than they allowed (135).

Jarkko Varvio: Jarkko Varvio (April 28, 1972 in Tampere, Finland) is a retired Finnish ice hockey player who had a very brief stint in the NHL.  Varvio was drafted by Minnesota North Stars in the 1992 NHL Entry Draft.  He was the top scorer at the 1992 Men's World Ice Hockey Championships in Czechoslovakia.  However, his only two active seasons in the NHL were in 1993-94 and 1994-95 with the Dallas Stars.  In 13 career games, he notched three goals, four assists (for seven points), and had four penalty minutes.  Jarkko scored his first NHL goal in his first NHL game, which was also the first game Dallas Stars played as the Stars since leaving Minnesota.  After his time with the Stars Varvio bounced around Europe playing in various leagues.  Varvio last played for Ravensburg EV in Germany's GerObL before retiring in 2005.

Brett Hull: Brett Andrew Hull (born August 9, 1964) is a Canadian-born American former National Hockey League (NHL) player and general manager, and currently an executive vice president of the St. Louis Blues.  He played for the Calgary Flames, St. Louis Blues, Dallas Stars, Detroit Red Wings and Phoenix Coyotes between 1986 and 2005.  His career total of 741 goals is the fourth highest in NHL history, and he is one of five players to score 50 goals in 50 games.  He was a member of two Stanley Cup winning teams - 1999 with the Dallas Stars and 2002 with the Detroit Red Wings.  His championship winning goal for Dallas in overtime of game six of the 1999 Stanley Cup Finals remains the focus of debate over whether it was scored within the rules of the time.  On January 27, 2017, in a ceremony during the All-Star Weekend in Los Angeles, Hull was part of the second group of players to be named one of the '100 Greatest NHL Players' in history.

1994–95 New Jersey Nets season: The 1994–95 NBA season was the Nets' 28th season in the National Basketball Association, and 19th season in East Rutherford, New Jersey.  During the offseason, the Nets re-signed free agent Sleepy Floyd.  With new head coach Butch Beard, the Nets fell apart like a cheap suit as Derrick Coleman missed 26 games with assorted aches and pains, Kevin Edwards played just 14 games before sitting out the remainder of the season with a partly torn Achilles' tendon, and first round draft pick Yinka Dare missed all but one game due to knee injuires.  Both Coleman and Kenny Anderson had a public feud with their new coach, as the Nets lost 15 of their final 19 games and missed the playoffs, finishing fifth in the Atlantic Division with a woeful 30–52 record.  Following the season, Chris Morris signed as an unrestricted free agent with the Utah Jazz, Benoit Benjamin left in the 1995 NBA Expansion Draft and Floyd retired.

1987–88 Minnesota North Stars season: The 1987–88 Minnesota North Stars season was the North Stars' 21st season.  It saw the North Stars finish fifth in the Norris Division with a record of 19 wins, 48 losses, and 13 ties for 51 points—the worst record in the league.  They failed to make the Stanley Cup Playoffs for the second consecutive season.  Despite finishing with the third-lowest winning percentage (at .319) and second-fewest wins in franchise history, they were actually still in contention for a playoff spot going into the last game of the season due to playing in an extremely weak Norris Division; the division champion Detroit Red Wings were the only team with a winning record.  The Stars lost to the Calgary Flames on the season's final day and finished last in scoring (242 goals for) and penalty-killing percentage (75.23%).  Earlier, the Toronto Maple Leafs, who were tied with the Stars for the fourth spot in the Norris as the day began, beat the Red Wings.  This not only kept the Stars out of the playoffs, but assured them of the worst record in the league.

2010–11 Dallas Mavericks season: The 2010–11 Dallas Mavericks season was the 31st season of the franchise in the National Basketball Association (NBA).  The Mavericks won the NBA Championship after defeating the Miami Heat in 6 games in the 2011 NBA Finals.  The Mavs playoff run came with a 6-game first round series against the Portland Trail Blazers, a series in which the Mavericks blew a 23-point lead in Game 4, but still won the series.  In the conference semi-finals, the Mavericks run was motivated with a sweep of the champions of the previous two seasons, the Los Angeles Lakers.  The series against the Lakers also became the birth of the Mavericks Royal Blue-Out games in the AAC, with almost all fans wearing T-shirts that read "The Time is Now".  In the Western Conference Finals against the Oklahoma City Thunder, the Mavericks won the last 3 games winning by 4th quarter comebacks, to win their second Western Conference Championship, and a trip to the NBA Finals for the first time since 2006, with a rematch against the Heat.  Following a disappointing Game 1, the Mavericks pulled the biggest comeback in NBA Finals history in Game 2 to even the series at 1 game each.  After a loss in Game 3, the Mavericks won the last two games in Dallas to take a 3–2 series lead heading to Game 6 in Miami.  The Mavericks won their first NBA Championship in Game 6 to clinch the first major sports championship in the Dallas-Fort Worth area since the Dallas Stars in 1999, and the first title in Mavericks franchise history.  The Mavericks are the third team to win an NBA title in the state of Texas, joining the Houston Rockets and San Antonio Spurs.  The Mavericks are also the third team to win a major sports championship in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, joining the Dallas Cowboys' five Super Bowl titles and the Dallas Stars' only Stanley Cup, leaving the Texas Rangers as the only team to not win a major sports title in the area, as they have not won the World Series.  The Mavericks championship parade was held on June 16, 2011 in downtown Dallas.
