Why Stars' top-heavy scoring depth isn't a huge concern for head coach Ken Hitchcock

The Stars have 28 goals from forwards in 13 games. Nineteen have been scored by Jamie Benn, Tyler Seguin and Alexander Radulov.

That's both great and a little concerning.

The fact the top line is tearing it up has to be seen as a fantastic trend, because there was some thought those players might have to adjust to a more defensive system under new coach Ken Hitchcock.

The fact very few others are contributing, however, is a massive reason this team is barely hovering above .500 at 7-6-0.

And yet Hitchcock was philosophical before Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Jets.
