They need more from Jason Robertson. He's doing a lot of good things -- playing good defense, setting up screens -- but he is still not scoring the way we have come to expect from him. He doesn't even seem to be getting very many touches.

What a crazy, awesome game. Miro showed tonight that he is all the way back.The Stars are finally getting goals from people who haven't been scoring goals. They are still one forward away from being borderline unstoppable and by one forward I mean Jason Robertson -- who is doing a lot of the little things but now needs to do a few big things, too.

McDavid and Draisaitl are ridiculous. Stars have to do a better job of staying high when they are on the ice. Those guys are lethal on the rush. T

The Stars were outplayed the first two periods. Not sure what changes DeBoer made after the 2nd Intermission, but they totally turned the game around. That, and the power play against a team that has been dreadful on the PK. The Stars can throw a switch with the best of teams.

Kinda funny that Dutchy very recently said he’d happily score a goal off his own teeth to end his drought, when it turns out what was really called for was Roope’s rear-end. May it be a fortuitous omen 🙏

Any team going into the AAC better be prepared, because there is some weapons-grade mojo brewing in that cauldron.

"And for the next five seconds, Seguin looked every bit like Tyler Seguin (italics), leaving everyone "

Plz leave the typo as-is. It's perfect.

For all the "rings are the only things that matter" I would refute that by citing the 2023-2025 Dallas Stars. We have watched them go up against and defeat the very best players and teams in the league. The most talented, accomplished people in the world competing at the pinnacle of their profession.

Watching Connor McDavid, Nathan MacKinnon, Leon Dreisetle is both terrifying and breathtaking at the same time.

Regardless of how this post-season turns out these Stars have given fans an exhilarating, terrifying, wildly entertaining ride.

This is fun. This is why we sports.

That third period was utterly amazing. It still greatly concerns me that the bigger, more physical Oilers were dominating play for the first two periods. The Stars have always had issues with physical teams and need to really ramp up their level of play 5 on 5. This series is going to be a real nail biter.
