Work In Progress

Defending Big D
About this episode

The Dallas Stars are in a pretty good place right now. They're in Stanley Cup playoffs position as Thanksgiving approaches, if that old measuring stick still means something. But even so, are they living up to their own outsize expectations?

As the only podcast that didn't get invited to Finland last week, Stargazing has been stewing in its long-distance thoughts about that. Wes and Mark have questions:

    • How reliant can the Stars afford to be on the Tyler Seguin-Matt Duchene line?
    • While we're on the subject, is Tyler Seguin a wizard?
    • Should we be worried that there are NHL netminders who have more goals than Miro Heiskanen does this season?
    • What will it take to get Jason Robertson going at full speed?
    • What's holding the rest of the roster back?
    • And so many, many more.

Will the Stars find another gear before the end of the year? Discuss it with us. We’re Stargazing, and we’re brought to you by BetOnline.

What do you want to see as the quarterpole approaches? Tell us at Defending Big D, or DM us @WesALawrence or @KETibbetts on the short app. (We’re still there, but only for you. Don’t leave us hanging.)

And please give us a rate, review or share wherever you listen. We love you all, always.

The Dallas Stars are probably going to have a pretty boring draft this year. It's the rest of the offseason that is shaping up to be a ride, and many fans are afraid it will be a dark one. But how much do we really have to fear, with the NHL salary cap rising and Jim Nill at the ... Show More

The Dallas Stars are this close to the mountaintop. It's not close enough. What will they do to get their next Stanley Cup, and will they have to change their entire team identity to cover that last mile? Wes and Mark want to know, too. Their latest talk covers everything from Ja ... Show More
