These are awesome....

We published our questions for the crew at In Lou We Trust this morning, and now ILWT has posted their questions for Art over on their site. Good job, Art! You represented us well! Head on over and check out his answers. Thanks again to the crew at ILWT for the good work and great questions, and for answering ours. Looks like both teams' fans are pumped for the season opener in New Jersey already.

Can you blame any of us? GO STARS!

I believe he's the first Star to jump into the Twitterverse. If you're on Twitter, give him a follow and a welcome! Twitter is quickly becoming a popular tool for NHLers. It's interesting that this happened just after commenters here on DBD were talking about how they'd love to see more of the off-ice lives and personality of the Stars. This is definitely a good sign. Here's hoping Barchy is the first of many tweeting Dallas Stars! (I'm looking at you, Otter.)

Just reminding you all to tune in at 7 pm CDT for a FULL rebroadcast of the Game 6 cup clincher, and hoping you all will join us tonight here at DBD for a live GDT during the broadcast. Follow the link above to the full schedule for the week, and even watch highlights online for those of you who don't have NHL Network. Stars hockey in August!

It's a one-year, two-way deal for the right winger. Boy, the guys in Cedar Park have been busy today, huh?

He was here during the late 90's and early 00's. Maybe not the help we were all hoping for but at least it's something. He played 29 games with the Texas Stars last season, while a member of the Canucks.

The first draft pick in the Joe Nieuwendyk Era is now officially under contract.
