Thought maybe some extra attacker late magic was going to happen, but it was not to be.

Avs lose.

A few days late. That second night of a back-to back, down 3-0, come from behind, overtime win over a divisional opponent was something else by the Stars.

I was smiling for a few hours after that. It kept me awake.

Yeo went off the deep end at practice in Miinesota again, but this time looks like he lost Suter and Parise among others. Save for a quick turnaround, I'd say his time is short.

I'm on Yeo's side on this one. This team needed a come to Jesus meeting. One game they will out skate the other team and play like they are unbeatable. Next game they come out and don't move their feet, can't complete passes that a 12 year old can make and don't play with any urgency. They've been like this for years. If Suter and Parise can't handle it they need to grow a pair.

And then the Stars go play Calgary, get a 3-0 lead, and lose it in a shootout. Yuck!

This gives me flashbacks to what your team did to us a couple nights ago!

Doesn't matter where one is in the standings, hammering the Leafs 6-1 seems very satisfying!

Well, I do confess I was wrong about Connor Hallebuyck. He didn't look good with the Moose, but has really stepped up with the Jets. He's let 3 goals in in 3 games. He absolutely stole the game from the Caps yesterday.

Cautiously optimistic........

I added him to my other fantasy team right before he started this run, I am rooting for him in all non-Blackhawks games.

Time to give Ladd back to Chicago....

We could swap him for - I dunno - maybe a Toews or maybe Kane. We'd throw in a few used pucks as a bonus.....

Sad to see the Jets in such a funk, Neil. No Kane or Toews though, maybe Scuderi and Shaw for Byfuglein and Ladd, just to help you out.

Dallas is very good right now, though we all know that the playoffs are the real test....right, St. Louis Blues fans?

Dallas' offense is fun, no doubt. What I saw in the third period against the Hawks, though, was how improved their defense was. They aren't defensive world beaters, but they are improving and they aren't giving up shots. I'll take that.

Exciting times for us Stars fans.

Stars look good, it was the men against the boys last night. I watch every Blackhawks game, and they are a boring team to watch right now

Those "boys" become the manliest of men come April.

Dallas' defense is definitely improved, the playoffs will be their big test. I'd love to see Hawks-Stars Western Finals in '16.

Pass.

Maybe Chevy will send you Ladd for one of your ice cleaner gals or the old dude with the fake hair who sings the anthems!

...or maybe just that bucket of pucks....

He's not really that old, Neil, 51. I'd trade you him and 5 rolls of tape for Ladd, especially if you throw in his mom Cheryl.
