What’s the true cost of a superstar RHD, and are Stars fans really prepared to face it? Wes and Mark mull it over.
History tells us how the Dallas Stars embarked on their fateful 1999 Stanley Cup run, and now we will, too: It was a time of magic and fantasy, brought to you by hard work and hard decisions.
Few have forgotten that the deal that brought the Stars Joe Nieuwendyk also cost them Jarome Iginla. Fewer still would take that trade back – even knowing the face-of-the-franchise, first-ballot Hall of Famer Iggy would become – considering what it ultimately brought.
With all this being true, and assuming the Stars are one player away from taking it all again in 2025…what would Stars fans consider a fair trade for the piece they’re missing?
Wes and Mark decided to address the fannish conversations about this issue, and the scenario they relate is not the one you want to hear. Reality is what it is – but there’s always the possibility you can substitute a different one. And they discuss that, too.
