great news, hopefully no setbacks with him. Roope Hintz also confirmed that no surgery is needed. whatever he is dealing with just needs time to heal. hopefully he's back in time for the playoffs and at 100%. it might be a blessing in disguise to have him rested as he is usually banged up come playoff time. stars are winning without them because of great depth. their depth guys are killing it. Colorado also lost tonight so 2 points gained.

The Stars have 40 wins, 90 points, and their longest point streak in a quarter-century.

They also have power play goals in 10 straight games - their longest run in 20 years.

And Jake Oettinger is on a personal 10-game point streak (9-0-1).

I love the comment about the stars, but I don't love the tornado warning. stay safe, we had a lot of much needed rain down here in central texas the past couple days and thankfully no tornados or bad flash flooding. I'm on the edge of the hill country. farther west they had golf ball sized hail. Lost Maples State Natural Area (State Park) posted some gnarly pictures.

and yes I really enjoyed the win yesterday. they mostly suffocated the golden gnats, and they had to grind one out. reminded me of the old school stars that lifted a cup. they used to play like that every night back then.

Crazy thing about that game is that the Stars had 3 shots against the Knights with 18:29 to go in the second period

The NHL has announced a change in the #GoSensGo penalty for the Dadonov/Vegas trade. Instead of forfeiting of their 2026 first round pick, they will instead pick 32nd overall. They cannot trade the pick and will also pay a fine of $1M CDN.

yeah, the stars are not typically a high-volume shooting team. they are a puck possession team that looks for quality shots, but sometimes that can work against them. they can definitely explode with goals though. I just went back and reviewed game 7 last year with Colorado. they looked cooked for 2.5 periods and then exploded with 4 goals.

#Avs Nathan MacKinnon said the NHL rescinded his major penalty.

If you get two in a certain amount of games, it’s an automatic suspension. So he’s back to zero for those purposes.

The Dallas Stars last season gave up 222 goals during the regular season and had a GAA of 2.71. They were allowing 29 shots per game.

This season through 64 games the Stars have only given up 170 goals and have a 2.66 GAA. They are only allowing 26.4 shots per game. #TexasHockey

Yeah I have family in Southwest Arlington and Burleson. Know that area very well. I lived in Mansfield for a few years as well when I was stationed at carswell in Fort Worth. But as a kid I lived in Arlington. Been through a lot of those tornado warnings and scary storms.

Was really bad tonight and couldn’t get pulled because their other guy was hurt from the McKinnon crash.

The Ottawa Senators and Chicago Blackhawks will play two regular-season games in Düsseldorf next December as part of a new NHL/NHLPA strategy to grow their footprint in Germany.

The league will play games in Germany for at least the next three seasons, among other initiatives.

damn and gudas only gets 5 games. doesn't seem like enough. NHL needs to do more to protect their star players and punish overzealous A-Holes who are either reckless or hunting to injure people.

I'm gonna call out Edmonton specifically because when they are in garbage time they are basically openly trying to take liberties on players. I saw it against Dallas and Florida last year. and when they realized they couldn't beat dallas the other night they flipped that switch again. if the NHL does nothing, mcdavid and McKinnon are eventually going to pay the toll. I saw Colorado whining about mckinnon being ejected in his game, but I know if McKinnon was knocked out of a game for a concussion on a borderline call, avs would be wanting justice.

Stars beat the red wings in OT 3-2. Was a scrappy game. On a rare day when both the wild and the avs lose in regulation.
