Dallas Stars GM Jim Nill gave this quote to media during the game this evening after trading defenseman Johnny Oduya to the Chicago Blackhawks from whence he came-
"We got 20-something games to go here and they’re going to be playing every night now and it’s a great opportunity for them," he said of the team's young blue line. "It’s a great chance to earn some experience. We have to make decisions for next year and this will go into deciding a lot of those decisions.”
And thus the tonight, and the remainder of the season, are well-framed for your viewing and judgmental pleasure.
