  • Good Stuff

    Love the content and breakdown. He’s delusional like most stars fans as in he’s an Otter lover. Other than that he’s on point.

    The only podcast I consider a “must-listen.” I download every episode and find Gavin and his contributors to be the most up-to-date, informed, and enthusiastic source for Stars happenings and opinions. 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 Schedule Release & What The Stars Will Lose If They Trade Robertson
Q: What is Robertson's value in this roster and how would losing him affect Dallas?
The guest argues Robertson is a defining player who feeds both offensive output and defensive responsibility, and while a trade could bring in draft capital or other pieces, losing him would remove a key element of Dallas's ability to control play and space, potentially narrowing their window if replacements cannot match his two-way impact.
Stars Schedule Release & What The Stars Will Lose If They Trade Robertson
Q: What is Johnston's B game to you?
David highlighted that Johnston's B game would be improvement in the defensive aspect of his play and consistency, noting that his A game centers on risky, elite bumper play and high-end net-front moves, while recognizing the development needed in defense.
Recapping The Dallas Stars & NHL Draft With David Castillo
Q: Why did Dallas pass on other defensemen and what does this pick say about their draft strategy?
The pick signals Dallas's emphasis on blue-line tools and smart defensive play, with the understanding that offense can come from elsewhere; it reflects a patient, long-term plan focused on acquiring versatile, high-IQ players who fit the system.
Recapping The Dallas Stars & NHL Draft With David Castillo
Q: Tell us about the 18-year-old Jakub Vaněček and where you had him ranked.
Vaněček was described as a clean, intelligent defensive prospect with strong skating and decision-making, likely to replace defensive depth as a future core piece, and notably valued for his pace and in-zone playmaking rather than a flashy offensive ceiling.
What Dallas Can Learn From The 2026 Stanley Cup Finals
Q: What changes could help Dallas be more like Vegas or Carolina?
The suggestion is to improve lineup balance, bolster the third line and fourth-line chemistry, and push for more reliable breakout and possession numbers to reduce the gap in overall team speed and structure.
