My friends often accuse me of being too optimistic when it comes to the Dallas Stars. Maybe I am – after all, I want to see the team I spend so much energy and time (and often money) following succeed in all aspects, both on and off the ice.
I am optimistic about the team’s moves this summer. They needed a change to the system, a different voice in the room, and they went out and changed much of the coaching staff. They needed a stable goaltending option for the foreseeable future, they traded for and then signed to a long-term contract a two-time Vezina finalist in Ben Bishop.
