2015-16 Dallas Stars Thread

[Vtwin]

The Stars got dominated in the first and Kari looked like garbage, then the Stars flicked the switch and Boston got BUSHWACKED! Kari turned into superman, and the Stars crushed the Bruins. Seguin made the entire city of Boston cry with that hat trick ROFL.

I don't generally gloat, but they were incredibly unfair to Tyler. You could see the seriousness on Seguin's faceduring this game. He was going to make them pay and that is exactly what he did.

Go Stars!

Come on man.

Good win for the Stars. Not taking anything away from them but, the Stars were out shot, out hit, and out face offed. The Bruins missed two absolute gimme's and lost one of their primary penalty killers to a horrific injury. Rask only had to face like 18 shots and let in 5. Slow your roll with the BUSHWACKED! lol.

Erickson was inches from his own hat trick. ;-)


I'm a Bruins fan but I'm not a Stars hater. Loved them in the Modano era. To me they look like the Washington Capitals of a few years ago. High flying, high scoring, lotta winning team in the regular season when they play the entire league and the power plays fall from the sky like raindrops in April. When the playoffs come around and the competition is better and the PP's are harder to come by defense and goaltending have proven to be the difference.

The Capitals and the Penguins immediately come to mind of examples to back that up. It will be interesting as a hockey fan to see if the Stars break the pattern.

I'll even give you a Go Stars! If it's not going to be the Bruins (and it's not, well probably not, I am a FAN after all) it might as well be the Stars.

The Stars are not the Capitals of a few years ago. Last night's game was not very Stars like. The Stars are one of the best puck possession teams in the league. (puck possession is king in the playoffs) Last night's game was an aberration, not the Stars standard. If you look at the game before. The Stars suffered through the same exact thing the Bruins suffered from in the Stars game. The Stars completely and utterly dominated the Maple Leafs, yet they lost 4-1.

Great Win!

Great Win!

I only got to see the 3rd period last night as I was at work until 8pm. :/ Though most of the Stars scoring occurred in the 3rd anyhow hah. It was great to see Faksa score his first goal. The huge smile on his face was so worth it. Given his history growing up with a hockey team instead of his family in the Czech Republic just so he could play hockey and then see him play his first game and score his first goal. That was a very good storyline in itself. Even Nichushkin who is playing very well, but just not scoring any points was very happy for him.



The own-goal with 1 second left on the clock was molded as hell hah.

Good stuff and great win!

Nice video. The team has been playing very well during the 3rd period.

Another fantastic win and great 3rd period.

Nuke finally got his goal. Nice to see him bury a follow up in close; I can't recall him scoring a dirty goal yet.

 

[YosemiteSam]

That blew last night. The Maple Leafs have three wins and two of them are against the Stars. ***. The Stars lost their first 3rd period this year. :/

The good thing is if the Maple Leaf's have the Stars number this year, it won't matter as they will not make the playoffs. So as long as the Stars do, they won't have to worry about that crap team.

Down with Canadians!

 

[YosemiteSam]

Back to back divisional wins against two tough opponents.

How about Klingberg? A goal and two assists! He lit it up again! Dude keeps this up and he is going to run away with the Norris Trophy!

 

[YosemiteSam]

Great game last night. I didn't get to fully focus on the game, but I had it on.

Another empty net goal. Like playing the Stars 3-3, it seems to be just as terrifying to go empty net on them these days. They will make you pay!

Spread out scoring last night too with eight different players picking up points last night. I love to see that.

Go Stars!

 

[YosemiteSam]

Game on, game on! Stars vs Capitals. Stars already up 1-0!

 

[YosemiteSam]

WOOT! Stars WIN!!! 3-2 The Stars are now 16-4!

That was a crazy last minute of play!

GO STARS!

 

[Amy50632]

Great win Tonight!

No stopping this train

They are a Bull in a China Shop! Benn (and Oleksiak) went into straight BEASTMODE last night. That fight was brutal rofl.



Razor yells, "Oh wow! Cauliflower ear!"

Don't look now, but the defense is starting to greatly improve. Goals against on a downward trend as of late. Now 3rd in the West.

7th overall in the league. (GAA) All those naysayers claiming the Stars are going to fold because of defense and goaltending can shut the bleep up.

I love how people who haven't even watched the Stars play were downplaying them so much. How can you nitpick when you haven't even watched the team actually play.

Great win Tonight!
