You’re doing a solid job of highlighting what we all (should) know, that this FA class is weak but also especially weak at ingredients that would work well with what the Stars are cooking. I’d have appreciated Pool party or Tatar over Smith (just not sure he has a needed role on his team, better player still than I have recently given credit for) but as an additional addition? Nah. Thanks for saving the deadest time of the year for us with actual insight and good writing!
Thanks Joshua! Agree about Smith. He's a player I really like, but upon reflection, it's clear there was better if Nill was ever bold enough to get younger instead of more experienced when it came to depth.

“Right now, Dallas doesn’t have a proper left winger slotted on their fourth line.”
Are you forgetting Sam Steel is left-handed? Or do you have him penciled in as either a permanent center or 13th forward?
I just meant a pure left winger. Steel is left handed, but he's a natural center.
I really wouldn't be surprised if Dellandrea was a scratch, but given the deal he got, yea: Steel is most likely the healthy scratch forward.
