Texas Stars Playoffs Preview

Stargazing: A Dallas Stars Puckcast | Defending Big D ·

2023/04/26

The Dallas Stars organization has what we might call a good problem this season: Every team is positioned to make a big run at the top prize, and all of them want the best players for the effort. How does that shake out for the Austin Metro squad? Regular Stargazing co-host Mark Zimmerman invited back 100 Degree Hockey's Stephen Meserve for a long talk about the Texas Stars' postseason, which officially begins on Friday, April 28 in Rockford. In this edition, learn all about: which players to watch

Wes Lawrence, co-host of Defending Big D's own Stargazing Puckcast, joined fellow commentators from six of our sibling sites to chew the fat and spit hot fire: Stanley Cup Of Chowder, for all things Boston Bruins, Anaheim Calling, a favorite pond for Ducks fans, Jewels From The Crown, serving the Los Angeles Kings, The Cannon, sounding off for

The Dallas Stars are in, and this year, there are expectations. No more lucky-to-be-here vibes – this time, the Victory Green Gang is challenging. You may ask yourself...how did they get here? Wes and Mark took a good look at the Stars' current situation, and dare we say they like where we're at? In this episode: Does it really matter who Dallas plays in the first round – and why not? How did Mason Marchment look in his first game back from injury? How many matchup problems did his return create for

Wrap It Up

Now that the Dallas Stars have secured their berth on the 2023 Stanley Cup train, fans have a whole new set of anxieties to mull over. Which matchups help, or hurt, the most? Can the team stay healthy? And whatever will we do if they don't break any more records on the way to the first round?... So what's left on the regular-season wish list? Wes, Mark, and Taylor 2.0 got together, and they came up with some questions worthy of Stargazing over. In this episode: What should we look for as the Stars

It's a good time to be a Dallas Stars fan. Jason Robertson is officially the new Mike Modano. Jamie Benn and Joe Pavelski have renewed our faith in Veteran Savvy with record-breaking performances. And Miro Heiskanen is still Miro Heiskanen. All this, plus Jake Oettinger, and the 2023 postseason looks like a bright light at the end of the regular-season tunnel. And while it's technically possible for the Victory Green Gang to fall out of the Stanley Cup playoffs, it's probably time to start scouting

Secondary scoring is hard to come by, the power play has dried up, but hey – the Dallas Stars can still lose by one point to any team in the league, no matter how good (or bad, for that matter). We’ve all seen this team have these problems before, so Wes and Mark catalogued a few of the things they hope to see more (and less) of in the coming weeks. In this episode: Is this a slump, or is this just...hockey? Should the Stars try to shut down 3-on-3 overtime so they can win in the shootout? Or is the

The Dallas Stars have come back from the All-Star break in pretty, pretty, pretty good fashion. With a crucial overtime win against the Anaheim Ducks and a feel-good beatdown of the Minnesota Wild, they’re cruising into a home matinee against the Tampa Bay Lightning with something like momentum. Wes and Mark would love to get in line for their postseason tickets right now, but they’re Stars fans, and Stars fans are conditioned to brace for the collapse. What has the team done, and what should it do,

At this very moment, every team in the Dallas Stars organization is at the top of its division. Think about that over dinner. It’s fun. 100 Degree Hockey founder (and AHL color commentator) Stephen Meserve joins Mark for a spring update on how the Stars have aligned to give us world peace – or at least the prospect of three deep playoffs runs. In this edition, we explore: the role that roster depth has played in the season so far, the pros and cons of a stable lineup, the players earning T-Stars

The Dallas Stars may be having trouble with those three-player assignments, but Defending Big D has it covered. Taylor joins Wes and Mark for a wide-ranging discussion of the baggage the Victory Green Gang is carrying into the 2023 All-Star Weekend. In this episode, these burning questions: Will the Stars ever win in 3-on-3 overtime again? Should they even bother when there’s no 3x3 OT in the (*ahem*) Stanley Cup playoffs? Is Mason Marchment in a lull, or just finding his way via the Joe Pavelski

Considering that 200 Hockey Men™ predicted the Dallas Stars were en route to a rebuild back in September, you might think that worrying about whether the team can make a deep playoffs run this May is a nice problem to have. But here at Stargazing, there’s no problem so big or small that it can’t be discussed to death. So this week, Wes and Mark take the pulse of the currently Hintz-less Stars and look for signs of trouble. In this episode: No, really, how much are they missing Roope Hintz right

As the first of three January road stretches concludes, we can see that the Dallas Stars are no longer the back-up goalie team. Fortunately, they’ve built a crash mat full of winners’ points to cushion the inevitable bumps and falls. The question now is how long it can (or will need to) last. Wes and Mark took a look at the California blitz that began on New Year’s Eve, and here’s what they brought for this week’s podcast: How did the Victory Green Gang lose to the Anaheim Ducks?

Which players have been the best gifters in Cedar Park and Boise, as the Texas Stars and Idaho Steelheads spread the excellence around? And what
