Dallas Stars Daily Links: Miro Heiskanen May Be The Best Young Defenseman In The NHL

You may not celebrate American Thanksgiving, but the advent of Miro Heiskanen is something all Dallas Stars fans can be grateful for.

Mike Heika is a fan, too. The Stars’ senior staff writer puts it this way in his latest #HeyHeika social-media mail bag:

I hate to make these proclamations, because I watch [Heiskanen] every game and I don’t watch other players near as much. But I will say that I have never heard people rave about a young player the way the Stars coaches do about Miro. The comment from Jim Montgomery where he said the coaches are like we in the media in saying, “Wow” about a few times a game, that’s a pretty strong statement.
