Now that the Western Conference finals between the Dallas Stars and Vegas Golden Knights has finally arrived (Game 1, 8:30 p.m. ET on ESPN/ESPN+), there is a strong chance you're going to hear a few familiar names.
If it's a conversation about the Stars? Expect to hear a lot about Jamie Benn, Miro Heiskanen, Roope Hintz, Jake Oettinger, Joe Pavelski and Jason Robertson. When the discussion shifts to the Golden Knights, players like Jack Eichel, William Karlsson, Jonathan Marchessault, Alex Pietrangelo, Chandler Stephenson and Shea Theodore will be hard to ignore.
