I normally like to read all the way through before commenting, but with this teams zone entries, Benn winning a draw is more important than Duchene's talent. If they get back in the zone, typically 30-45+ seconds are off the clock. I'd even be willing to put Faksa out on the PP if it was the difference between winning a draw or not. If he doesn't win, you pull him off when you try to reenter the zone.
Superior players are great, but give me a great team any day. Farraginous talent is wasted. Think of an orchestra, sure they can play the music without a conductor, but it is at best going to come out flat. You need to know where you are in the play, when to step up and when to rely on others. There are too many mid-season coaching changes that end up lifting the cup to not believe this is true.
Enjoy watching the game! Because it’s a ESPN+ and Hulu broadcast tonight (last of the season?), so out of area fans can’t watch. I’m not adding stream channels for 3 games.
No thanks again to Stars crack Mktg staff for whoring out $$$ instead of being fan oriented. Pick ONE broadcast partner and stick to them!!!
Do you think Nill brings up one of the kids from Cedar Park to take Dodonov’s place on the team? Or do you think they will roll with 16 forwards? My guess is if they put screws in Dadonov’s leg he will be out 4 to 6 weeks. Can DeBoer stand Delly in the line up that long? What do you think
This team will be running as lean as possible until the TDL to grow cap space as much as possible. After the TDL, it will all depend on cap space but I would bet on one of them at a time coming up to avoid having a logjam that ends up with one or both of them in nacho-land.

Faceoffs Matter!!!!

Go get Jay Woodcroft to run the PP!
TDL is all about getting hired guns, and there's a howitzer on the market that no one is talking about.

This one isn’t on the Stars. The LEAGUE made this deal.
Thanks for the info! That makes more sense in that the NHL has pretty poor mktg since… forever!
N H L. S I x six should help you solve your problem Ken 😉
Sorry CCotty not Ken
Thanks, but todays game not on Fubo either.

Footnote: see Matthew Tkachuk in every game.

I am thinking if he brings 1 up they will play
