Julius Honka has clearly become a fan favorite since being drafted by Dallas in the 2014 draft. So when operation #FreeHonka went underway, I couldn’t have been happier to see the fans come together in the defense of the young player. With signs in American Airlines sporting the Free Honka slogan, you were either with it or against us that were with it, and well no in between.
It has been a roller coaster for the young defenseman in the past couple of years now, but can we expect that roller coaster to level out? In my opinion (and in many others’ as well), Honka is becoming a key to the Stars’ success as of late.
