This weekend John Klingberg will team with Tyler Seguin to represent the Dallas Stars at the 2018 NHL All-Star game in Tampa, Florida. Seguin will be playing in his fifth All-Star game while Klingberg will be making his first appearance. Both players are still just 25 years old, so look for this to become an annual […]

It seemed like a typical Friday night at Snuffers in Highland Village, Texas. There wasn’t a seat available at the bar as patrons chatted about the end of another work week, the movies playing next door at the AMC and the local sports scene. Making the customers’ favorite drinks from behind the bar was Kristina […]

As part of the Dallas Stars’ 25th anniversary season, the team will recognize many former Stars players at select home games deemed “Reunion Nights.” The Stars kicked off the festivities by honoring former captain Brenden Morrow on Saturday night before going on to defeat the Carolina Hurricanes 3-2. Reunion Nights at American Airlines Center will […]

The Stars will be celebrating 25 years in Dallas this season. It was 1993 when the Minnesota North Stars realigned further south to become the Dallas Stars. Since that time Dallas has won a Stanley Cup (1999) and was runner-up the following year. It has also been the home of the most prolific United States […]

As the Stars aligned at Cedar Park last week for the start of training camp there were many new themes. First, they welcomed back the old bench boss (same as the new boss), Ken Hitchcock. Next, they introduced a few shiny new Stars in Ben Bishop, Alexander Radulov, Marc Methot and Martin Hanzal (not skating […]

On August 15, two former college hockey players became high-profile National Hockey League, free agents. Will Butcher and Alex Kerfoot, both previously drafted, can now sign with any NHL team. Butcher is former University of Denver defenseman. A fifth-round pick by the Colorado Avalanche in 2013, he has the offensive skills many teams covet. He […]

Player Development Coordinator Rich Peverley was the Stars’ good luck charm last Saturday night. Peverley represented the Stars during the NHL’s Draft Lottery. After being projected to pick eighth, good fortune shined on the Stars and they will now pick third overall in the 2017 NHL Entry Draft on June 23 in Chicago. What does this […]

Tyler Seguin wasn’t the only former Bostonian at the Dallas Stars  game on Thursday night when they took on the Boston Bruins. When the 2016-17 schedule came out I circled March 30th. It had been a few years since my last visit to the Garden, so why not celebrate the old birthday taking in a Stars […]

One thing is certain as the Dallas Stars’ 2016-17 regular season nears the end. Changes are coming. The Stars were mathematically eliminated from the playoffs on Monday. They have completed the rare task of sandwiching two dismal seasons around a first place Western Conference finish in 2015-16. Currently, the Stars rank eleventh in the west […]

The return of Stars’ play-by-play broadcaster Dave Strader put things in perspective Saturday night. It’s been a rough stretch for the Stars of late, seemingly waiting for the shoe to drop on head coach Lindy Ruff or certain players to be moved for future assets while they still hold some value on the trade market. […]

Local Dallas-Fort Worth meteorologists are predicting the area’s first freeze this week. Meanwhile, the Dallas Stars and their fans also know “Winter is Coming.” So far this season, the Stars’ play has resulted in a mediocre record  (10-10-6). They continue to accumulate a list of battle wounds that would make Game of Thrones author George R.R. […]

The Stars’ decision to let Alex Goligoski and Vern Fiddler walk this summer created openings for two new alternate captains. Goligoski and Fiddler led by example on and off the ice. They leave big shoes (or boots) to fill. Now with captain Jamie Benn signed to an eight-year extension, the Stars must pick his new […]

As the final four teams battle it out for a chance to play in the Stanley Cup finals, it’s become clear, a former member of the Dallas Stars will get to hoist the Cup. Not just any former player, but potentially a former fan favorite. Which of these names do you want to see on […]

The Stars and coach Lindy Ruff will no doubt continue playing the shell game when asked, but the elephants in the room blocked the door to the penthouse and everyone knows it. I have no doubt Stars General Manager Jim Nill is researching potential solutions. Remember, it’s early, Nill typically works his magic in July. […]

The Stars gutsy playoff run ended on a sour note Wednesday night when the St. Louis Blues dominated Game 7 winning 6-1 at the American Airlines Center. Dallas came up one victory short of the Western Conference finals despite playing without their second best player most of the (Tyler Seguin did play 15 minutes in […]

Wednesday night’s Game 7 is the last chapter of an epic playoff series between the Dallas Stars and St. Louis Blues. The series clinching game will be telecast on NBC sports at 7:00 PM CT. Or if you prefer the local coverage, turn down the television volume, turn on The Ticket (96.7FM/1310AM) and listen as […]

The atmosphere was electric at the American Airlines Center this past Sunday. The Dallas Stars were looking to take a 2-0 series lead against the St. Louis Blues. The Stars opened the scoring at 3:36 of the first period via an Alex Goligoski shot from the slot. However the Blues responded and built a 3-1 […]

After Friday night’s 2-1 Dallas Stars victory over the Blues, they are now 11 wins away from hockey immortality. Therefore, I thought it would be fitting to review 11 different reasons why the Cup will come back to Dallas. Dallas Stars Reasons 1-4 1.) Depth, depth and more depth. While the Dallas Stars might lack […]

I wish I could say Tyler Seguin’s return is one of my five bold predictions or that Stars’ defenseman John Klingberg will outperform the Blues’ impressive defense corps, but both are unknown at this point. Of course, Jamie Benn will show up and will find the net. Most likely Jason Spezza will too. Of course, special […]

After surviving a six game white knuckle ride vs. Minnesota, the Stars are on to the second round. Now they get the pleasure of facing either a dynasty or the only head coach to bring a Cup to Dallas. Careful what you wish for, right?  Well, we can thank the NHL’s flawed playoff seeding system […]
