Damn you’re fast kcb

 

[piqued]

It's pretty crazy to go 4 years without ever knowing if a player is actually interested in joining you. Great sign.

 

[BrettHullsToe]

Yeah, I was starting to think he was going the free agent route this summer to avoid the Stars' forward depth.

 

[M88K]

Yeah, I was starting to think he was going the free agent route this summer to avoid the Stars' forward depth.

That problem is going to disappear soon

 

[serp]

Yep Stars won't be able to afford all the luxury top 9 guys paid like 3-5 million very soon anymore. Cheap youngsters are going to need to fill that role.

It's a Clarkson party

Trey Taylor, D, Clarkson​

Averaging close to 25 minutes per game this season, Taylor has been a revelation this season. A 6-foot-2, left-shot blueliner, he has shown true two-way capabilities this season that inspire more confidence in his ability to be a contributor at the next level. He has 25 points this season, but his ability to defend and match up against top lines is where teams will be impressed. He likely projects as a fringe bottom-of-the-lineup defenseman in the NHL, but the proficiency he's shown this year has certainly caught some attention.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Trey Taylor, a defenseman from Richmond, British Columbia, has steadily risen through the ranks of competitive hockey. Born on February 4, 2002, Taylor began his journey with the Seafair Minor Hockey Association before making his mark in the British Columbia Hockey League (BCHL) with the Vernon Vipers. His strong defensive play and ability to contribute offensively earned him recognition as a reliable two-way player. Taylor’s performance in the BCHL paved the way for his collegiate career at Clarkson University, where he continues to develop his skills in the NCAA. His dedication and consistent growth highlight his potential as a promising prospect in the hockey world.

Scouting reports emphasize Taylor’s poise, hockey IQ, and versatility on the ice. Standing at 6’2″ and weighing 190 pounds, he combines size with mobility, making him effective in both ends of the rink. Taylor excels in breaking up plays with his strong positioning and stick work, while his crisp passing and ability to join the rush add an offensive dimension to his game. He is known for his calm demeanor under pressure and his ability to make smart decisions in critical situations. Additionally, Taylor’s work ethic and commitment to improving his game make him a valuable asset to any team. As he continues to refine his skills, Trey Taylor remains a player to watch in the hockey community.

Taylor has attended development camps of the Vancouver Canucks and Tampa Bay Lightning.

Taylor has 1 year of NCAA eligibility remaining.

Damn he shoots left. I was about to ask if he wanted to play in the NHL playoffs

 

[Troy McClure]

These college free agents almost never work out, but with the Stars having essentially zero future NHL defensemen in the system, this is a smart place for him to sign. If he makes strides, there’s an easy path to NHL opportunity.

 

[serp]

If the player just becomes an AHL regular that's already more than fine.

If you need a right shot D, maybe you can see if Martino can bring his girlfriend along with him:

 

[Kipper 17]

What is Martinos upside?

I remember being pretty excited about him early on. Then it seemed like we never heard anything about him for the last couple years. Now he looks promising again.

NHL's Stars sign Clarkson blueliner Taylor, who leaves Golden Knights after junior season - College Hockey | USCHO.com

The NHL's Dallas Stars have signed Clarkson junior defenseman Trey Taylor to a two-year, entry-level contract that will begin in 2025-26. Taylor will

www.uscho.com

Taylor recently finished his junior season at Clarkson where he totaled 29 points (nine goals, 20 assists) in 39 games and served as his team’s captain. His 29 points were a career high, ranked fourth on his team and were tied for ninth among all NCAA defensemen this season. Taylor’s 2024-25 campaign also tied for the eighth-highest scoring by a defenseman in program history and also set NCAA career highs in goals, assists and power-play goals (4). His performance this season earned him ECAC Hockey best defensive defenseman honors for the second consecutive season.

Trey really took a step offensively this season while also remaining a solid defensive D.

What is Martinos upside?

I remember being pretty excited about him early on. Then it seemed like we never heard anything about him for the last couple years. Now he looks promising again.

I could see him topping out as one of those OK depth NHL winger/high quality AHL winger types.

If he turns out to be a good 3rd line winger, I think that is a win for him.

 

[piqued]

If the player just becomes an AHL regular that's already more than fine.

Yeah, look at Luke Krys. That's a nice player to have on your AHL team for free.

 

[serp]

Yeah, look at Luke Krys. That's a nice player to have on your AHL team for free.

Hryckowian we also got for free and he's almost PPG in the AHL in his first year and even played NHL games.
