The Dallas Stars 2025-2026 Season Thread: We can haz cup?

At the quarter point of the season we have the second best record in the league in points behind only Colorado (who will not be able to keep that pace) and third in the league in point %. considering the key injuries we have had to start that's pretty impressive. definitely a deep team with the well looking pretty good in cedar park too (not the team so much, but the player pipeline)

Man, I'll defer to you, but watching the Texas Stars I just don't see anyone with NHL written on them.  Maybe Kole Lind, but everyone else seems small or not quick enough.  Other teams are manhandling the TS and they don't have someone to blow by the defense to free up the other forwards.

    yeah, i like the idea of having two skilled scorers and a puck retriever on each line. I think people forget or don't know Steel was a 1st round pick. he's no slouch.

oh the team itself is kinda dogshit atm, but turning over a coaching staff usually has that effect (especially with a 1st time coach). Capobianco, Kolyachonok, Petrovic (who is still 2-way) have all shown they can play at the top level and I think among the forwards (which Hryckowian is still part of) Lind, Hyry, and Stranges could all play and contribute. Losing Blumel to FA hurt and so the well is a little dry after that due to lack of recent picks and trades, but I have confidence Nill is working on that.

Just checking in after finally getting caught up on the last couple of games. 

- Fuck bitchass Roy, bitchass Rittich, and Toronto for fucking us out of a point in the Lawng Islander game. Robo was clearly pushjed into the goalie. That's not fucking GI. So stupid.

- Congrats to Razor on a well-deserved HOF induction. Just in the last week he's given me two new band name candidates: "Mortiferous Wrister", and "Moose on Tourist".

- That goal by Rantanen last night. Oh. My. Goodness. One of the best I've ever seen. Just ridiculous.

Lol, what? That goal too flashy for them? I watched that whole game and don't recall the incident. Lame

Hope that islander gets something for faking a high stick the other night. 
 

ran into a hot goalie tonight so far. On pace for a 40 save shutout. 

Damn 5 more for boarding on moose plus game. That’s like 50 pims this week

Edited by Pato del Muerto

Not fans of late starts huh. 83 seconds of 5-3 to take the lead very late. 
 

didn’t do it. OT.  
 

lol started 4 on 3 for a few seconds to finish off a penalty and then no stops so 4 on 4 for the entire OT. 
 

1 point it is

 That 1 last night looked pretty bad. 2nd 5 minute major and game misconduct for boarding in 3 games. Likely he is going to get at least a game suspension for that 1 meaning probably miss the game on Tuesday against the Oil.

I wouldn't be surprised if he gets a game or doesn't get anything, save maybe a fine. I only really saw the one angle but it's clear exactly when Mikko lined him up and I think the fact that he didn't really pull up is why the play remained a major. the fact that Coronato returned may help him, but yeah, he might have to sit one. Bad timing.

1 game suspension. guess two game misconducts in a week is an automatic one-gamer. sucks he won't be able to suit up against the oil as we'll be the only game that night

That’s one of those life moments I’ll never forget. Exactly where I was, who I was watching it with, and the tits I saw that night. (Not mine)

Game 2 of the 99 finals is, I think, my last time inside reunion arena. 

99 I was there as well, maybe 2000. But not in the playoffs.

Lego tonight. My favorite opponent we play to watch these two skate. I’ve seen Edmonton 3 times in the last 4-5 years live and you can’t really pick up how fast Conner is on TV.

I was laying on the floor of my apartment in Newcastle, England watching it on one of the BBCs. The 3rd OT got started a little before 6am. At 6am the channel switched to BBC morning news. Had to wait until I got into the office to find out who won. I was so bitter.

Jamie should celebrate 400 with a gordie Howe hat trick since he already has the Apple too

Yea when I saw they were 9-8-? Pregame I thought the same thing.

Weren't they terrible to start last season,  too?

Ha, good call. Just looked at wiki and they were about the same 365 days ago.

I believe Edmonton had some bad injury luck (not like the Stars are gonna cry for them) thus far. 

Of course, what really happens is that later on, a cast-off goalie all of a sudden becomes impenetrable. Hockey is a sport where a goalie can get hot at the right time and just ruin every other teams' hard work!

Last three years they’ve sleepwalked through November. Last two years they then rolled off like 15 straight soon after.  But without going back to look, one of those involved a coaching change and the other a goalie change (those things may have been in the same season)

No time to rest as we got Seattle tonight. Duchene has been on the trip - wonder if he slots in tonight

The twitters think they're going to trade for Binnington, which would make a lot of sense.

 
 

Daily face off has the same thing except the 2 and 3 lines on D is reversed.

Went down 2-0 and I turned it off. Nice comeback.

Down 0-2 is the magic button for them this season for whatever reason. 

Doesn’t look good for Bichsel. Awkward fall in to the boards.
