  • Good Stuff

I love how professional and easy to listen to Gavin is as a host, but his personality still shines through with his obvious love of the Stars and the sport of hockey. Very glad I found this podcast and will continue to be a loyal listener. I especially enjoy the episodes that feature unexpected in... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Stars & Jets Preview With Connor Hrabchak
Q: So from a Stars perspective, the key to shut down the Jets on Thursday night is?
Hrabchak says Dallas should focus on Winnipeg's top line, led by Mark Scheifele, Kyle Connor and Cole Perfetti, because the Jets have struggled to generate offense elsewhere.
Stars & Jets Preview With Connor Hrabchak
Q: So are you surprised that this deal has not been done yet?
Hrabchak says he is surprised, noting that several anticipated deadlines have passed without a trade. The Jets could not find a deal they considered valuable, and he thinks they want immediate roster help rather than picks and prospects.
Thoughts On The David Perron Signing & A Team Update Live From Chicago
Q: What have you seen of Thomas Harley? Does the stat show a little bit of a slow start?
Heika says Harley has the skill set to contribute more offensively but may defer to Miro Heiskanen and is still adjusting to the team's more aggressive defensive approach. He sees Harley's next step as important to the Stars' blue line.
Thoughts On The David Perron Signing & A Team Update Live From Chicago
Q: In your experience throughout the years with players joining teams, how quickly do you think it takes for a guy like that to get going and join the team and actually be on the ice during a game situation?
Heika says Perron could potentially join the team quickly, perhaps within a day, and that the accommodating locker room and existing respect from players could help him settle in.
Stars Get First Win Of The Season After Blanking San Jose 5-0
Q: What stood out to you most from the Stars' game last night in terms of development or strategy?
Depth scoring and disciplined defense stood out, with the team staying out of the penalty box and getting contributions from lines beyond the top unit, which is crucial for sustained success.
