Dallas Stars Preseason Battles: How the Third Defense Pairing Might Look with Taylor Fedun, Jamie Oleksiak, and/or Roman Polák

Whether you’re looking for a mini sweep or the big one, the goal is the same: earn the money.

If you missed the Stars’ third preseason game last night in Colorado, let me summarize with this: Dallas beat a pretty decent Avs lineup with Mattias Janmark, Radek Faksa, Jason Dickinson, a third defense pairing, and a swath of players either too early or too late in development to be more than borderline NHL candidates out of training camp.

How did they do it? Well, much the same way Dallas won a lot of games down the stretch last year: Goaltending.
