2024-25 General Dallas Stars Talk

[roryjones]

Cozens name is out there in the rumor mill. He is young and skilled. He would cost something pretty but fits a timeline better.

I would not mind going after Brock Nelson. He would add much needed scoring. I’m also interested in Borgen. He would add size and physicality and is a RHD. Not sure Seattle will be able to afford him with all the money they have committed on the back end. He was playing top 4 until they signed Montour this year.

We were reportedly interested in Carrier this summer, so it wouldn’t surprise me if Nill wants to add some beef to the lineup.

The fact he didn't refuse this call up shows his lack of commitment to his AHL teammates.

Brian with an 'e' reporting he will be in the lineup

Dumba will need minor surgery and is going to be out the next 18 months..... Or anything where he doesn't dress again for the remainder of his contract

I thought he was going to Frolunda

I'm not sure they can get away with disappearing someone for that long, the Comeau banishment was in the last year of his deal at least

Thought I'd look at how the Stars are doing this season compared to DeBoer's prior two.

The numbers through 28 games DeBoer's first season were dead on identical in a few places.

22-23 after 28 games
.661 points% (7th) 3.75 GF/G (3rd) 2.82 GA/G (9th) 25.3% PP (8th) 84.6% PK (3rd) -- 2.39 5v5 GF/G (2nd)

23-24 after 28 games
.661 points% (7th) 3.50 GF/G (7th) 3.11 GA/G (14th) 25.3% PP (8th) 87.1% PK (4th) -- 2.21 5v5 GF/G (9th)

24-25 so far
.607 points% (12th) 3.29 GF/G (9th) 2.61 GA/G (5th) 17.2% PP (26th) 82.7% PK (6th) -- 2.18 5v5 GF/G (14th)

The only real difference is the offense. The two season decline of the top line shows up in both the 5v5 scoring falling from great to league average and the PP now being terrible.

I guess my summary here is Pavelski needs to be in the Hall of Fame for what he did to make Hintz and Robertson look as good as they did.

Nill has not replaced pavelski’s production. The rookies are not doing it. He now has a chance to fix that with Seguin’s injury.
