A contract hasn’t been signed yet, but Rick Bowness will be the Dallas Stars’ full-time head coach next year. His return provides some stability to what has unfortunately been a tumultuous coaching carousel in Dallas the past several years.
Just because Bowness is returning, however, doesn’t mean that there won’t be any changes:
“I think there is room for improvement on both specialty teams... We’ll continue to address the offense. And with all that being said, we’ll never lose our identity; team defense wins. And we’re going to continue to stress that, but we are also going to continue to improve in those other areas that give you a chance to win.
