Could be an exciting year for the Dallas Stars with the newly signed vets and younger prospects moving up. For those that are following the season, post your thoughts here.

Was at the opener and watched some of the game last night. Overall I'm optimistic about this season I believe GM Joe has the right idea about using this season as a bridge year. We have some amazing talent coming in the future. This season should be fun to watch with some solid netminding depth and the potential magic jagr brings to the table hopefully for eriksson and eventually benn. I look forward to the game vs the wings tomorrow which is always a good contest.

Don't think they needed to trade Ott or Neal, but this team still has a chance to be really solid. There's very little flash now, but every line seems to be solid.

Played Minnesota tough (they are pretty good this year), just didn't have the crisp passing needed to win. I'm sure they'll get there. Nilstorp looked pretty darn good too.

When they finally sign Jamie Benn, they are going to have a decision to make. Do they break up the Whitney, Jagr, Eriksson line? That line seems to have a lot of chemistry right now. But they definitely need Benn to sign.

Still haven't been able to watch a game yet, but I've listened to both on the radio. Ill be in class during the game tonight too. When we finally sign Benn, I think we will end up moving Wandell down since Benn fits great right in that center spot on 2nd line.

Minnesota had 26 blocked shots in the game, so we just had trouble getting good shots off from the inside. We werent getting much net presence and were taking too many perimeter shots. It was similar to the offense in the game against Phoenix. In that game, most of the offense of both teams was starting from the point, so we just need to work on getting it deeper and cycling the puck a little more.

Go stars. Can't wait for Benn to get back on the ice.

I think both Ott and Neal's trades brought us good returns so I'm not too upset about them. Ott was obv a fan favorite, and I really liked Neal, but Goligoski and Roy have real value for this team.

I just hope we can sneak into the playoffs this year. From there, with solid netminding anything is possible.

short season maybe what this franchise needs to get back in the playoffs...last few years we've been crapping out around the 62-65 game mark.

Great win in a tough environment

Points are going to be precious in this shortened season. We're going to need to find our team chemistry quickly. I thought the move of Eakin up to the 2nd line was a good one.

Still... it will be great to get Benn back in the lineup. This team is built around him.

Really hope they can wrestle at least 2 points out of the Chicago-St. Louis games coming up. Both teams look amazing....

Hopefully Ryder is still hot from the other night. I'm convinced nobody can stop a Ryder wrister that's on goal, its too wicked.

Blue star for Kari's effort tonight, really standing on his head and bailing the stars out.

Mike Heika reporting Benn won't play Saturday. Something to do with immigration. Hopes to play Monday.

That's unfortunate but itll give the coaching staff longer to figure out how to reorganize the lines
