Dallas did Dallas things. Wes and Mark wiped the sleep from their eyes in time to discuss the first game in Minnesota.

The Dallas Stars did what the Dallas Stars do on Wednesday night. And it worked out just fine – this time – as Dallas Stars things are liable to do, especially during series with the Minnesota Wild. (What did that one guy say?… Sixty percent of the time, it works all the time.)

In this episode of Stargazing, Wes and Mark take a dive into the double-overtime victory in St. Paul. They discuss the revival of Dallas’ special teams, who’s really winning at 5-on-5, where puck luck and regression can make a difference (and for whom), why stupid fouls could still decide the series, predictions for Game 4, and so very, very much more.

If you can win the high-danger areas, you can probably win the series. We’re Stargazing, and danger is our business.

The Dallas Stars are coming home to a best-of-three series after another overtime in Minnesota – this one ending in a loss. What's next? In this episode of Stargazing, Wes and Mark discuss everything from the Nils Lundkvist's injury to Thomas Harley's impact, and from the performance of the top line to Michael Bunting's possible fit into the lineup. Who needs to go off if the Stars want to close the deal? We're Stargazing, and we have our ideas. What did you see in Game 4? Let us know at Defending Big D.
