Blumel contributing next to Bourque and Stankoven, kind of a no duh statement. Blumel continuing to produce away from them, tell me more. Dallas has recently been a factory for bottom 6 forwards who can have a spark of life, but only when they go to another team and play against the Stars. Assuming nothing major shifts trajectories, the Stars have 5 top 6 forwards with Roope being the "old man" at 27 (6 if you want to include Marchment a year older). At some point this team will need bottom 6 guys and having a known guy like Blumel as an option is a nice luxury to go along with Dellandrea, Seguin and maybe Steel.

Idk about the origins of "lettuce" as a term, but it's been a thing in Minnesota for a minute. Since '05 atleast.

Hockey Hair 101 doesn't cover lingo, so it's an understandable oversight.
