Dallas Stars Daily Links: Tyler Seguin’s Summer Is More Fun Than Yours

Tyler Seguin is spending his summer doing one fun thing after the next. Plus, Lou Lamoriello says goodbye to the Devils, and Glendale makes peace with the Coyotes.

It's okay to admit it: Tyler Seguin is having a better summer than all of us. He's been hanging out in Vegas with famous DJs, baring it all for ESPN's Body Issue, gracing the red carpet at the ESPYs, and golfing up a storm.

But wait, there's more. Seguin also kicked off what will undoubtedly be a promising movie career, following Mike Modano's example of making cameo appearances in cinematic classics.

And, to top it all off, Seguin—along with teammates Jason Spezza, Antoine Roussel, and Patrick Eaves—appeared at Smashfest IV yesterday to raise money for the Katie Moore and Steve Moore foundations and, of course, dominate at ping-pong.

Seguin even teamed up with Spezza, and the pair seemed to do just fine together.

I assume that Seguin's epic summer is just preparation for an even more epic 2015-16 season. That's obviously the only logical explanation here.
