When Are We?

Stargazing: A Dallas Stars Puckcast | Defending Big D

You ask how we know about Dallas Stars hockey? Well, we spent a week there one day.

Wes, Taylor and Mark reflect on the month’s worth of news the Victory Green Gang made in the past 96 hours or so. In this must-listen edition:

• Are the Stars the most dramatic team in the NHL, or is it just that the drama tends to be concentrated in big clumps?
• Was it a good idea to give Ben Bishop one last shot at a return from injury?
• Was Anton Khudobin’s contract extension absolutely necessary?
• What can we expect now that the Jake Oettinger - Braden Holtby Era is officially upon us?
• What’s happening to the league now that the Omicron variant has given COVID-19 its big comeback – and is a temporary shutdown inevitable?
• What does that have to do with the unspecified non-COVID illness that’s lingering in the Stars’ dressing room and refusing to leave?
• What do they need to do to play through misfortune and still keep their identity? (IMPORTANT: Not the identity where they can’t score. They can lose that one.)
• And what about the Winter Olympics? (No, seriously, what about them?)
