Good morning, DBD! The Stars have announced extensions for two key team members.

The Dallas Stars are keeping their league-best broadcast team together – and taking them to their new network.

Stars president and CEO Brad Alberts has announced contract extensions for Josh Bogorad and Daryl “Razor” Reaugh:

“Razor and Josh are widely recognized as one of the best broadcast duos in professional sports,” Alberts said. “Their chemistry, passion and knowledge of the game are on display during every broadcast. As the team enters our inaugural season on Victory+, we couldn’t ask for a better pair to help usher in the next era of Stars broadcasts.”

At the same time, he confirmed a drop date for the Stars’ new streaming app:

Victory+ will officially be available for download beginning Wednesday, September 11th. Beginning with the 2024-25 season, all regional Stars games will be broadcast on Victory+, a free direct to consumer streaming service created for fans, announced earlier this summer. More information about how to download the app and other frequently asked questions can be found at DallasStars.com/Victory+.
