How bout them Stars?

[pHILSANITY07]

Yeah, the lopsided number of shots/shots on goal eventually put the handwriting on the wall, but there was still that chance of a win in the OTs. Stars fan here, but the Blues were the all-around better team in this final game.

If it wasn't for Bishop the Stars would've lost in 6.

[The King]

Agreed, in the third period especially it seemed the puck was almost always down at the Stars goal so that Bishop had to constantly defend. There was a bit of action at the other end near the very end of the period that could have maybe ended it, but it just wasn't to be.

What sucks is that Bishop was a god damn wall all night and then a nasty bounce is what did him in, not some kind of great play or anything. I'm surprised they even made it to OT. That was a horrible showing for a game 7 especially with as intense as they came out to start the game.

[pHILSANITY07]

It's like when we had our chances we tried to pass in front rather than just crank it in.

Wonder if we'll bring Zuccarrello back. I think I read where if the Stars resign him then the 2020 3rd rounder to the Rangers becomes a 2020 first rounder. Lost a 2nd round pick of this years draft in the trade. I'm open for it. Benn and Segin aren't getting any younger. Same with Bishop.

[Rick Modena]

Well, at least we can say we lost to the eventual Stanley Cup champs.
That was a very good game tonight.

What does everyone think about picking up Pavelski and Perry for some offense? Wish we could have made a deal with Zuccarello. I think we might be a pretty good contender for the cup.

I'm thinking we're in pretty good shape after adding Pavelski. Wish something could have been worked out with Zucc. He was a hell of an addition. I'm iffy about Perry, but we shall see what happens.

One part about signing Zuccarello is if the Stars did then it would give up a first round draft pick.

I forgot the exact details. If the Stars advanced to the Western Conference finals then the 2nd round pick they traded to the Rangers becomes a 1st Rounder. Same if the Stars resigned him.

[CyaNide]

Already disappointed with this season. Was SO ready for the start of this season.

Well this has taken a great turn. I have watched all the games so far and they are finally playing as a team.

Go stars

Last couple of weeks they've looked pretty tough. Hard to believe they started off as bad as they did.

[pHILSANITY07]

Since the tornado that hit Dallas on October 20th. The Stars are 11-1-1.

If memory serves me right they were 15th in the Western Conference on that date. To now being in 4th place and 5 points behind the Blues for 1st.

[CyaNide]

Falling apart again. Looking worse than at the beginning. Not sure how this season will go.

[Trip McNeely]

Yeah I'm gonna need Roope Hintz step it up after that injury. He's one of my fantasy forwards.

[pHILSANITY07]

Didn't watch the Jets game, but at least we ended the streak. Should've beaten the Wild on Sunday if it wasn't for that late penalty.
