You may have heard something about Patrick Eaves being traded, but you never would have known it by the look of the Stars’ power plays Saturday night, or at least...well, okay, yeah. You noticed it. We all did, but thankfully John Klingberg found himself in the traditional Eaves spot, and he made the Eaves shot. In Eaves’s honor, I think we can assume. Come back soon Patrick, okay?

Alex Goligoski was a great player for the Stars, and you’ve already decided what you think of the trade that brought him here originally. But when you think of what the Stars were when they got him, what they were forced to be when they had him, and what he was forced to be for almost his entire tenure, it’s kind of amazing.
