Ott attacked by 3 Ducks, then suspended

Saturday, February 28th, 2009 Posted in Uncategorized | 2 Comments »

He gets decked by Giguere, Niedermayer takes a whack, Pronger comes over, and Moen pummels him repeatedly. Then Steve Ott gets suspended. Ok. The Stars are beyond done at this point, so it's pretty laughable as it is already. Richards, Zubov, Morrow...let's see...how ...

Raise the white flag

Because it's over. The Stars out chance, out shoot, out hit, out work, out skate, out-anything you want, St Louis all over the ice on Thursday night, and they get nothing for it. They hit the post 5 times. Add that to the ...

Stars trade for…some guy

Stéve Begin is his name. You can blame the awesome, post lockout scheduling for this, but I have no idea who the guy is. He plays in the East, which up until this season may have been some far off ...

Reality setting in

The Stars need to finish at least 13-10 to make the playoffs in my estimation. Is that even remotely possible? Let's take a look at the Stars next 6 games: Blues @ Stars Ducks @ Stars Penguins @ Stars (back to back) Stars @ Sharks Stars ...

Banged up, Stars lose 1-0

Mike Modano can't go because of the flu, and Toby Petersen misses most of the game after being hit with a puck in the skate or ankle. He could be out a while, but we won't know until later today ...

Tomorrow’s Headline today: Sharks dominate Stars

Monday, February 23rd, 2009 Posted in Uncategorized | No Comments »

One thing is clear now: The Stars absolutely do not want the 5 seed in the West. For some reason they just do not match up well with the Chicago Blackhawks. The Minnesota Wild, who the Stars OWN, can beat ...

Stars 4, Oil 2

After allowing 40+ shots to Columbus on Monday, the Stars allowed only 23 to Edmonton. The result was a more relaxed Marty Turco and a relatively easy night for him. If anyone deserves it, it's him. He's got Chicacgo coming ...

The end? or a beginning?

Brad Richards will miss 6 to 8 weeks with a broken wrist. He will not require surgery. OK. Now what? On November 21st, the Dallas Stars learned their captain Brenden Morrow had torn his ACL and was done for the year. They ...

Richards likely out for the year?

First Zubov, then Morrow. Now Brad Richards. That's about 17 million in salary out now for the Stars. Richards left the Stars game in Columbus Tuesday, and has been diagnosed with a broken wrist. He'll be evaluated tomorrow. A "googling" reveals other ...

The good times of late January are officially over. The Stars have played 3 awful games in a row, enough to make it a trend. Friday and Saturdays games made us all nostalgic for those wonderful November days when the ...
