The Dallas Stars have made it halfway to the big show. Not bad for a team that was widely expected to miss the 2023 Stanley Cup playoffs altogether. Now comes their biggest test yet: Can they take down the regular-season Western Conference champions, the Vegas Golden Knights, on Sin City’s home ice?
Wes and Mark have been thinking about this matchup for a long time. A long time. In this edition, they talk about:
- what stood out in the Stars’ seven-game series with the Seattle Kraken,
- why this series marks a return to “normal” hockey,
- what Esa Lindell does exceptionally well,
- why the Stars succeed, or fail, in individual games,
- which groups are crushing it, and which are Kryptonite,
- how the whole team can help out Jake Oettinger,
- why even a struggling Jason Robertson is better than you think,
- and what may be the one way Vegas can control the series.
