Somehow, the Dallas Stars have become one of the NHL’s most dangerous power-play teams with only one power-play unit. And that’s not the weird part. Wes and Mark are always looking for the worst explanations for the Stars’ best performances — and even they’re going to the “special teams mean nothing during the playoffs after the refs swallow their whistles” take at this point.
That said, they do have questions. In this episode of Stargazing, they want to know what’s up with Thomas Harley, how Mikko Rantanen has changed the team’s structure, whether the new system is contributing to defensive foibles, if the Stars can keep holding their own in the Central Division, and so much more.
