Free Agency Free-For-All 2023

The Dallas Stars have made some notable moves on this summer’s free-agent market, but so far the biggest headlines have surrounded GM Jim Nill. With a brand-new Jack Adams Award under his belt and two more years helming the ship in his future, that seems appropriate.
Wes and Mark certainly thought so, and now they want to talk about why. In this edition:
Why did GM Jim focus on the forward corps?
What will have to happen if the Stars still want another top-four blueliner?
How can Nils Lundqvist still have an impact?
Where do the Stars’ best prospects fit into Nill’s three-dimensional chess game?
What will Dallas do about its cap situation?
And how will Pete DeBoer deploy the retooled roster?

We don’t know the question…but is the answer Matt Duchene? Let’s talk about it…in the new episode of Stargazing. Brought to you by our good friends at the Green Team, Greening Law, P.C.
