Defending Big D, a Dallas Stars community

The Dallas Stars were hopeful their days in the Pacific Division would be over after this season. This appears to not be the case anymore after the NHLPA did not approve the league's realignment plan by the NHL's deadline. The league will operate under the current divisions and playoff format for the 2012-13 season. Plenty more on this later, but I can guarantee you the Stars will not be pleased with this development.

For those of you who are on Google+, the Dallas Stars now are too. Add the Stars to your Circle!

Stars are getting recognition as a threat even from the Penguins reporters about Crosby's return. With the line of " However, if they could use him against any opponent, it'd be Dallas: the 10-3 Stars lead the Western Conference with 20 points." I'm happy our boys are starting to get some national respect!

The Stars acquired Eric Nystrom from the Minnesota Wild in exchange for future considerations as per the official Dallas Stars Twitter feed. I presume this solves our cap issues. Thoughts?
