Best team in NHL vs Worst team in NHL

Saturday, November 29th, 2008 Posted in Uncategorized | 2 Comments »

6-2. That's about what the score should be when the best team in the league plays the worst team in the league, right? No surprises there. A turnover at the blue line... San Jose goal. Joe Thornton behind the net, uncovered, Boyle ...

Fun with numbers

Tuesday, November 25th, 2008 Posted in Uncategorized | 2 Comments »

Just a quick note here. Taking into account the generally accepted fact that you're going to need about 93 or 94 points to make it into the playoffs, and given the Stars have a league low 16 points, they're going ...

Dunce Defense

Tuesday, November 25th, 2008 Posted in Uncategorized | 2 Comments »

Exhibit A Dallas is in pretty good position to defend this, right? No, somehow this guy lolly-gags his way through 4 Dallas Stars and takes it right into the crease where he unceremoniously flings the puck off a Dallas player and ...

Laugh out loud

Steve Ott will be out for at least a month, maybe more, with a broken hand. That's at least 13 games by my math. What else can you do but laugh? Morrow, Lundqvist, Lehtinen, Ott. So we'll be rolling with Landon Wilson, Chris ...

Morrow out for season.

Friday, November 21st, 2008 Posted in Uncategorized | 4 Comments »

Well at least now we have an excuse. FRISCO, Tex. - The Dallas Stars announced today that the left wing Brenden Morrow is out indefinitely with a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee that will require surgery. He is ...

Old. Slow. Stupid.

Chicago is fun to watch, and boy are they fast. Their speed created nearly every goal for them on Thursday night. I'm quite confident in saying the Stars fastest skater (which by the way, who is that exactly?) couldn't beat ...

Stars Gameday:CHI @ DAL

Thursday, November 20th, 2008 Posted in Uncategorized | No Comments »

To answer your first question, no they won't be there tonight. It's been 5 days since you've last seen your Dallas Stars. What have they been up to? Is this productive? They've lost Boucher, and gained Sydor. They've lost Jere Lehtinen for another 4 ...

Crombeen claimed by Blues

Tuesday, November 18th, 2008 Posted in Uncategorized | No Comments »

Ouch. That will help the Blues for years to come if they do it right. Crombeen is a good young player and I hate to see him go. Why are we watching young guys go, and signing guys in their ...

Trying to raise that cap…

In an "economic crisis" (seriously, the family in front of us at the last game could only afford to buy their kids nachos, hot dogs, ice cream, foam fingers and programs, but no Pizza Hut. Tough times...) the NHL is ...

Dallas 3, Phoenix 2

Monday, November 17th, 2008 Posted in Loui Eriksson, Mike Ribeiro | No Comments »

I'm not sure how to blog about winning games any more, so I think I'll just rip them for their performance in Phoenix on Saturday night, shall I? Maybe not... The Stars laid the perfect blue print for themselves on Saturday: -Very ...
