  1. Nicely done @Blue Jay 22! Too much to handle for Nico, Burns and Pugin that series. Dallas is happy to have broken their first round stigma and get to the Western Conference finals. Time to tweak the roster a bit.
  2. Oh wow what timing. Nice work Dallas. Zibanejad woke up and is a playoff beast. Thanks for the great series @Monty as your team definitely had some elite talent! Onto the top seed in the West. Need to have Mika, Nico and Marky R keep leading the way!
  3. Come on Dallas. Keep running through the finish line. Just like Biden with Arizona/Nevada!
  4. We’re going to secretly send Vesalainen on a Wpg revenge mission to take Laine out at the knees in game 1. Need to manage that top line somehow. In Nico we trust!
  5. Thanks to @winterhawks for the great 7 game series. Dallas is happy to move on to the second round and break the first round jinx. Captain Nico is willing this team through the playoffs!
  6. Dallas Stars Awards for the regular season: 2024-25 MVP - Mark Regula 2024-25 Leading Scorer - Nikolaj Ehlers 2024-25 Best Defenseman - Mark Regula 2024-25 Best Goaltender - Alexandr Pugin 2024-25 Top Rookie* - Kristian Vesalainen *Not his first season but his first season with 58 games 2024-25 Unsung Hero - Mika Zibanejad
  7. Nico Nico Nico! Great player and just a nice guy
  8. Haha I tried to claim him in the first place and would have paid a 3rd to start with. I've made my peace. Finns will find their way home to Dallas.
  9. Dallas waives Tyler Motte after the recent trades with the intention of sending him to the AHL.
  10. I have an option or two here. Have some options in your inbox to discuss.
  11. Dallas Stars are pulling out all the stops and implementing new jerseys for the next game. We have also discovered that we had a visor design flaw (Shown below) not allowing Kessel or others to see where they were skating or shooting. We have resolved the issue and we want to apologize to the team for the early season visor issue. We feel we will see an improvement on the results now that his has been resolved.
  12. Didn't think I'd have to pay close attention this these for this year, but with how badly Dallas has started off the year, I've read every word!
  13. I think Ottawa is going to be better than most people think. They have added some skill to their young core. I don't think the narrative on Galchenyuk is fully accurate based on the situations he's been in. At 1M, this seems like a no brainer. I hope we can find the space to take a flyer on someone too. Still hoping that we could bring in someone like Granlund or Hamonic on a major discount.
  14. Dallas waives Erik Haula with the intention of sending him to the AHL. Should be cap compliant with that move.
  15. Dallas Stars likely opening day roster: Ehlers - Hischier - Kessel Kane - Backstrom - Skinner Hintz - Zibanejad - Horton Motte - Faksa – Virtanen Byram – Klingberg Lindell - Regula Zadorov - Burns Pugin Porter
  16. We are very happy to add Nicklas into the mix. This gives us much needed C depth and playoff experience to ensure we push even further into the playoffs. Erik Haula who is a defensive stalwart on a great expiring contract is available for the first pick available in the next hour.
  17. Heard today on Sportnet 650 that teams are offering 3.5-4 to Hoffman right now. I think everybody left is going to be going at a major discount. Would be nice to pickup a player like Athanasiou or Granlund on a short term discount. I think we are due for some FA contract luck.
  18. Well..... I’m not sure I’d classify it as hustle. If you watch him during a defensive shift he has the intention of doing something but if that doesn’t work as expected he’s typically giving some half hearted attempt in autopilot. Then he goes to shift off at a third of the speed of autopilot. He’s mostly just going through the motions at this point.
  19. Dallas nukes the following: Brogan Pouliot Keaton Beckman Simon Svahn
  20. Is there a max contract limit we need to stay below?
  21. Dallas is happy with our draft this year. Two future NHLers and a couple of guys that will likely play in the farm but could surprise. Key additions to the org: #10 C Archie Brodeur - Ryan Johanson comp #27 RD Arto Kabashi - Henri Jokiharju comp (Arto joins his older brother Juho in the Dallas System) Welcome guys!
  22. Congrats on the Rocket Richard and the Lady Byng trophies Nico! Congrats on the runner up selections Alexandr and Phil.
  23. Stars place a claim on Kristian Vesalainen
  24. Wow Radulov was slow and weak. Pretty good job overcoming it for so many years.
  25. Have to root for him too. He really put the time in when in Texas.
