Summer Prospect Party

Stargazing: A Dallas Stars Puckcast | Defending Big D

Summer means fun, and fun starts with the youngsters. And as Dallas Stars fans, we're all about the kids in the team's development system. Who's ready for the big league? Who's still cooking?

Derek Neumeier, assistant director of scouting with McKeen's Hockey and longtime Friend of DBD, is back on the mic with Wes and Mark. With th 2024 NHL Draft over and training camp still on the horizon, they devoted an entire episode to Nothing But Prospects. Here's the kind of thing you'll hear:

• • which Stars prospects are the most fun to watch,

• • where Mavrik Bourque and Logan Stankoven will start their seasons,

• • how many Stars fans might be lining up for Lian Bichsel sweaters in the near future,

• • why that extra year with the Texas Stars may have been exactly what Thomas Harley needed,

• • and much, much more.

Is Logan Stankoven still a prospect? Or not? Stargazing asks the important questions, even when nobody knows the answers. And now you can, too, thanks to our friends at BetOnline.
