GDT: [Game #75] Dallas Stars vs. Nashville Predators – 7:00 PM CT (Victory+)

I think because Bourque is a better fourth line than Dadonov is, and I mean that as a compliment to Bourque.

Honestly, I could see Dadonov eating some scratches in the playoffs. Blackwell might be the better 4th line choice.. and when Seguin is back the decision is even easier.

Blackwell might be a better 4th line grinder, but I would still play Dadonov in that slot in case there's an injury that happens during a game further up the lineup.
 
I don't understand the 15 second top line shifts and then they're removed right before O zone faceoffs
I was thinking about shifts in the first last night, seems like PDB knows it takes a while for some players to get into the game, so he shortens shifts to start the game it seems like. I didn't check any numbers though.
 
I started watching halfway through down 1-0 with 9 shots and our own commentators saying that they suck balls. Glad I chose the right time to tune in.
 
I’ve actually been impressed with the Fanatics jerseys I’ve purchased. Just as good as the Adidas ones. Will they screw them up in the future? Possibly.
Yeah, so far I think you have to say they've done a surprisingly good job. Who knows whether the quality will go to shit and they'll start cutting corners at the factory when the spotlight is off, but I don't think there's any shame in having a Fanatics from the Premium level up.
 
My understanding is that Fanatics is still using the Adidas templates this season.
Next season is supposed to be 100% Fanatics, so that's when we'll see any quality changes (if any)

I think they would have showcased that in the 4 Nations like they typically do in All-Star games and previous World Cup of Hockey tourneys. The 4 Nations were all great so I’m confident they’ll be fine.
 
I'm rather worried about Bichsel's health and his reputation with refs. He has to learn how act a bit smarter when it comes to physicality.

He has been rather efficient with the puck though. I looked up Stars defensemen P/60 today:


Harley: 1.21
Bichsel: 0.93
Heiskanen: 0.93
Ceci: 0.82
Lindell: 0.77
Smith: 0.69
Lyubushkin: 0.68
Dumba: 0.61
Lundqvist: 0.53

I'm just talking shit to talk shit.

I've got my Winter Classic (Miro), Blackout (Miro), Noche Mexicana Warmup (Also Miro, from the Covid year), and the Stars white CCM with 2000 cup final patches (Lehtinen), so I'm set for my little collection unless they release something I really like.

I wasn't a big fan of the reverse retro (not the god awful white ones, those are still trash to me), so that's the only one I wouldn't hate coming back as a new third. I'd pick one up too, granted the sweaters will probably be like $500 with tariff shit.
