GDT: Preseason Game (?!) - STARS vs BLUES @ 6pm CT

[Henderson33]

Can't believe Alex Petrovic actually played in playoff games for us.

 

[starsfan86]

Blumel still a dumb hockey player

 

[Cowboyluck]

They look pretty good though

 

[starsfan86]

Only one preseason game, but Blackwell playing like he wants to be the healthy scratch.

I’m liking Capionancagshdhs

 

[Kcb12345]

Capobianco scores 1-0 Stars

 

[starsfan86]

Stankoven has 9 shots after 2 periods lol. He deserves a goal

 

[BG44]

Bourque looked like he took a big hit at the end of that period. Hope he's OK.

 

[Troy McClure]

Just curious what the new Stars Telecast would be like and does it seem like everything is zoomed in? That is a pretty big scorebug (Glad it's on top rather than the Bally way) and the Victory+ thing is large.

Are you watching on a TV or other device?

 

[Kcb12345]

Blackwell scores from distance. Bichsel will get an assist

 

[starsfan86]

Shouldn’t have gone it but we’ll take it. Bichsel looks solid tonight

Looks like a completely different player compared to his Traverse City play

Bichsel's size is crazy when you see him skating with everyone else. There are a number of tall NHLers, but he's thick like how Shaq was compared to other NBA big men.

 

[Kcb12345]

Stars win 2-1

 

[Troy McClure]

After what I saw, I think I'd start the Cup parade at the Cotton Bowl this time.

Yeah, I noticed he's not a lanky dude who when you see him on his own looks like he'd be tall like Oleksiak. He's like proportional in the way that if someone shows you a picture of him where you can't gauge his size based on things around him, he'd look like he could literally be any height.

And I've watched one of his international games where he was also the biggest guy, but I wasn't sure what to make of it because being big in a U20 tournament isn't the same as being big in the NHL.

I'm not watching anymore, but it was on ESPN+

 

[FirstRowUpperDeck]

Hearing here that Liam wouldn't be ready for the NHL this year disappointed me. His performance tonight didn't.

Lundquist's turnover leading to a goal against probably seals his fate here, even if he did make several nice plays earlier.

App worked perfectly for me on both my phone and TV.

 

[Linkens Mastery]

Your guys new streaming platform is nice. Very smooth from what I watched tonight.

 

[Kcb12345]

App worked great on my TV. Super buggy on my PC but maybe that's cause I was using an ultrawide monitor idk.

Broadcast picture size didn't scale to the size of the screen properly
Game kept freezing after a while
Game glitched out a couple of times (sometimes rewinded itself, other times paused itself)
After a few seconds on the screen, if I didn't push full screen immediately it would disappear entirely and never reappeared unless I refreshed

That's actually great feedback to send to them.

It worked great on my Amazon Fire stick. Smoother than the Bally's app every did.

I think the thing with Bichsel is Nill did the same thing he did to Stankoven/Bourque last season where he signed so many NHL bodies that there isn't even a roster spot available to win out of camp. Because of signings made in July, Bichsel is going back to the AHL.

Jim Depth Nill

Last season was pretty crazy. The Stars had no real injury problems with forwards until February or so. I don't know how often a team goes so long never having more than one forward unable to play.

Calm down Laura
