Stars rookie Miro Heiskanen living up to Texas-sized expectations

Miro Heiskanen admittedly didn't know much about Texas before relocating there from Finland this summer. He knew of the Dallas Stars, even before they drafted him third overall in 2017, because his countryman Jere Lehtinen played 14 years with the team and won the Stanley Cup. He knew about the barbecue, which he has now tasted and says is at least as good as what he gets back in Espoo. And he was acutely aware of the climate.
