Timehop can be both a wonderful and cruel application. And sometimes, in very unique situations, it can be both.
Such was the case on Wednesday morning when I opened the app to find that it has been one year since the Dallas Stars defeated the Nashville Predators in overtime of Game 6 of the 2019 Western Conference quarterfinals.
On the one hand, it’s provides a good memory of a wonderful and emotional night for the organization and its fanbase. By the same token, it’s also a tough reminder that the Stars could be in the middle of weaving another thrilling tale in the 2020 Stanley Cup Playoffs had the NHL not joined other sports leagues and paused its 2019-20 season back on March 12 due to concerns about the coronavirus pandemic.
