Youthful Ducks Overwhelm Stars 7-5, Snapping Dallas’ 7-Game Point Streak | DLLS STARS POSTGAME

Well, that sucks. Hey, Ryan. Jacob in our chat, I think, is requesting sky is falling. You have that at your fingertips. The sky is falling. That’s the the drop for the pregame cogame cold open. Buds has seven goal breakdowns of the 12. I do supposedly. and we’ll see if our producer Ryan can keep up loses it because the computer freezes or if it behaves itself tonight. Either way, got a big show. And if you’re very nice, maybe we’ll share some photos from our pregame appearance up at the Main Street Popup Branch. We have photos. We’ll find out next. DLS Stars postgame show starts right now. [Music] [Music] All right, first and foremost, this is ridiculous, guys. I just hit refresh. We have almost 100 people already logged in.

This is the DLS Stars postgame show. Craig Lewig, who was the star of the pregame. More about that later. Oh yes, he was at the main shaking hands, kissing babies, signing pictures on the wall, about to sign Darien Hasher’s photo as well. We all had fun. But before we get to that, yes. Well, I’m looking down just to see if anyone else is hitting that. There we go. Likes. That’s what I’m like. Hit that like button. Let’s talk about the t-shirt. A lot of DLS shirts out there tonight. Look great. Lot of mullet hats from PNC Bank. You guys need to go grab those shirts. Look at those. They are fantastic. The new Dallas hockey faceoff collection here at DLS. Grab them. I was told ls cuz our boss made an appearance tonight after being MIA for the last few broadcast. DM Ben said we were about six or seven shirts shy of our goal. But he said quote unquote soft-hearted boss might make an exception. Well, what does that mean? What? Make an exception to what? Us getting shirts. Oh, is that right? Without having to buy them. Well, I forgot that’s what that was all about. That’s what it started with. And then you started saying I’ll buy beer for it, too. Yeah. I’m going to need a couple shirts then. I’m going to try to go sell them and make up some money. Go to that right now. All.com. Get those shirts and let’s do it. All right. That looks like a baseball store up there by your It is. It’s right there. Right there. There. 75. The Ducks beat the Stars. Stars uh sevengame point streak officially ended. They had not lost Luds in regulation since October 21st. It was an ugly loss. 5 to1 at home to the Columbus Blue Jacket. I remember that one cuz we were all sitting there going, “This team may not be as good as we thought it was.” And then, you know, after losing three in a row, a four-game winless streak that started that October 23rd game where they lost in overtime, that started. Tell him to join. Sam just texted and said, “Ready whenever you are. Get in here, Sam. This is your segment. Not later when we get into the breakdown run.” Sam, plug in. Call in. Let’s go. He knows. Well, he knows, but I’m yelling at you guys like you can hear that. Hey, I was going to ask you you you asked people to do the thumbs up. Yeah. Is there a thumbs down thing on there, too? Is it just thumbs up? You’re Yes, it says I I like this or I dislike this. Yes, there is a thumbs up. Oh, there is. Okay. I would prefer that you guys hit the thumbs up because it helps send signals to the game. I would give the game a thumbs up. Yeah, but no, no, no, no. You don’t want to encourage our fans to hit thumbs because that affects our broadcast, not the game. You can still say thumbs up broadcast. Okay, Luds, I have some before we get into the breakdown. I have some bright spots and I have some not so bright spots. So, I’d like to list a few and you feel free to react however you’d like. Okay. Mirro Hasten, four assists. Wyatt, these are bright spots. Wyatt Johnston, three points, two goals, one assist. Both of them on the P both goals on the power play. Miko Rantin three-point goal two assists. Rope Hint scores in his return from injury missed five games. Tyler Sean 16th NHL season first career goal against the Anaheim Ducks. And then Sam pointed out he still doesn’t have goals against all 32 or 31 other franchise. Actually 32 because he has scored against the Stars because the Utah Mammoth are a new franchise. They’re not the Arizona Coyotes. So that’s a technicality. Stars power play three for five continues to look very very good. Those are some bright spots. I was Oh, that’s I was exactly say there’s your bright spots. Those are your bright spots. I thought in that Oh, another one. They scored first and second. Let me give you a quick stat because I tallied this up after the first period. Dallas has played 14 games this year. They have scored the first goal in six of them. That’s less than 50%. But remember, they scored first in the first four games of the year. Did they win all six of those games? Uh, you know what? I’d have to go back and look. I didn’t. That should have been part of your tallying up. Listen, I had like a minute before the start of the second period. So, here’s what I have for you. And then we can go back and look at this. They have only scored first. Remember, they scored first in the first four games of the year. So, they’ve play in the last 10. They’ve only scored first in two of them. That means that eight of the last 10 they’ve allowed the first goal. They’ve also allowed a two nothing deficit in six. That’s a lot. But here we are scoring first six out of 14. Now didn’t turn out so well tonight. It did not. Are you ready for the other side of some of the not so good? Well, step one, not so bright spot. They gave up seven goals against. They gave up seven goals against on 17 shots over the final two periods. No bueno. They gave up two power play goals against and they allowed a shortand. Those are all stinky PU yuck. And I believe or bring Sam on. He can he can chime in on this. He’s not ready yet. Well, he said he was ready like five minutes ago, so he was lying. He’s got the thumbs up. I am always ready. There he goes. James sent me a tweet, Luds, that said six rush goals. Six. Is that right? Six rush goals against. I have to go back and count. I believe that. And and but there was poor changes. There were turnovers that led to all of that. So, there’s a reason that there’s rush goals. Sam, this is a great segment for you to join in because we just got going. We’re talking about key storylines. We haven’t gotten deep into our breakdowns where we push Sam aside and say, “Wait till we’re done.” I just listed off a bunch of bright spots and a bunch of not so bright spots. What’s your takeaway from this one? Yeah. Yeah, it’s a it’s good timing, too, because the the biggest talk talking point down there was obviously rushes. Um, you know, Glenn Dolson always talks about line rushes against, and that’s kind of how he likes to analyze games for his team. He said their game plan pretty simply was to limit the rushes and the first period they did a great job of that. He said they he felt like they were on top of them all night or they were above them all night. They were doing a great job at kind of dictating the way they wanted to play and then as soon as they allowed that first goal he said for whatever reason the mentality totally changed and all of a sudden they started forcing pucks. They started making uh mental mistakes. Uh, I think we saw I mean a turn puck over on the offensive blue line is a huge no no, right? Then all three forwards change, another big no no when the other team’s rushing at you, then lost coverage. It it was that one on top of another snowballing. And he said he was disappointed that they just couldn’t reel that back in. And for whatever reason, he it it felt like a panic thing. And I think uh I want to say it was the Jason Robertson turnover at the blue line. He was like, “That’s just a play we we just there’s no excuse for it. you you’re at the end of a shift, that puck has to go deep. And that’s the way the night kind of felt for for me was every goal against was like I mean Owen, when you were here, we looked at each other on almost every goal it was like how is he so open or how is no one covering that guy backside or where is Lean Bishell going? It was just constantly one after another after another. And uh he said they just he was disappointed they couldn’t reel it back in right away and then he felt like that second period as soon as they started doing that it buried him. And he said you know we reset at the third period even after the Krider goal. He was like look that that Crider goal didn’t even you know phase us. We we felt like we had a reset and felt good but at that point you had already given a young team that I think has already scored seven goals four times this season. you have the give them all the momentum all the the you know the freedom to make plays and the confidence at that point it’s tough to go back and I think that that was the biggest thing for him that they buried themselves so much that even if with a good third period they didn’t stand much of a chance remember a lot of these games that we were talking about had collected a point in what five six games straight or what seven games seven in a row but you’re like you know at least they got a point out of it yes caught It’s catching up to him. Some of this some of this looseness, some of the the coverage that you know that that Jake bailed him out at time. Jake let in a I mean there there’s nobody goals tonight where he was. There’s nobody tonight for the home team that can even if you got three four points and feel good about their game. Now I can say Mo and Wyatt, you know, they they’re doing their part again, right? I mean, but but I think some of those things that you you kind cuz his coaches are probably going them six, seven games going, well, we were fortunate get that point or fortunate to get that. Well, eventually that that runs out and it’s one. You know what, L? Yep. I was just going to say you said Mo, yeah, he was great, had a ton of points, but even Mo was susceptible to the mistake tonight. I mean, it’s not that he made a terrible mistake, but on that goal that led to the short-handed goal that basically put the game away, he tries to throw a bank shot off the back of Dostall’s head from no angle with nobody on the far wall to keep it in. Turns into a twoon-one the other way. And he It’s not like he was hustling back. Not that he could get there, but that’s just that’s the kind of night it was. It felt like, you just said it perfectly. No one can really look at themselves in the mirror and say, “I played a really good game tonight despite three points or four points or, you know, two goals and an assist like that the guys had. It it just felt like, you know, Glen Golson said it. He was it’s a veteran group. So, sure, you’re disappointed that when you have those mental attention to details type of plays, but everyone’s susceptible to it. And and as you said, Lutz, it felt like tonight it caught up to him. Maybe it’s a good thing. Maybe they needed to lose a game in regulation and allow seven goals to realize they need to figure out a few things along the way here and not just chip away just to try to get points. Remember when I was going, they’re a favor? They’re a I guess 180 like you know I’m like would you call this a pond hockey game? Yeah it was in a sense because a lot of times when there’s highscoring games you hear that that’s sort of a cliche. Oh it’s pond hockey out there. I think what they did is they got caught up in playing Anaheim game. You know, Anaheim seems to be a freewheeling kind of exchange chances kind of team and and they’re scoring a ton of goals and so they have a ton of confidence in their ability to crawl back into games because they’re putting the puck in the net and you know, but if you looked at Q on the bench, he’s just sour. You know what I mean? He always looked sour. You know what it reminded me of? It reminded me of the 2015 16 Dallas Cart. The Lindy Ruff team that had all the skill and speed and they were okay to win and play wide open. wide open, win 76, not great goalending all the time, exchange chance, not great defense, but we’re going to beat you just simply by by outscoring you and we’re just going to outslug you. And we know that that’s not what Glen Gullixson’s philosophy is, right? So, you know, it’s gotten away from him here and but again, you know, could could the schedule be catching up to them even though you’re only a little bit into this and it it’s a tough schedule. Well, it’s not going to get any easier because they got what another four or five games every other night at this point because they are in the middle of a road trip now. They are going to go to Nashville on Saturday for an afternoon game. Come back and play. But you’re playing every other day. That’s true. Every other day you’re playing what? What was it? Seven Seven games in 12 days or something. This is their second stretch that they did it. They did have Sunday off. They had practice Monday. Then they played Edmonton. I mean, is it maybe a little bit of a let down? You play the Oilers. You know how important it is to your head coach. you know how much is for most of the teams that lost in the playoffs. They find a way to beat them. I think a little bit of this may be and and again everybody knows that Anaheim is not the same team but maybe you have to play them once to go oh yeah they aren’t the same team because there is a lot of get up and go in this team and they’ve been used to seeing the Anaheim California teams about two of them not do well over the last few years. Well, maybe they got to make uh you know, the Anaheim is making a lap through and maybe some teams are taking them for that team that they were last year and next time you’ll play these guys different. Sam, don’t go anywhere. We got to do a quick ad break, but let’s talk a little bit more about this before we get into our goal breakdown next here on the DLS Stars post game.

They were all over American Airlines Center again tonight. Hope you enjoyed them. Copyright, of course, the PNC Financial Services Group Incorporated, PNZ Bank, an official partner of the Dallas Stars, and they went big over this week promotion. All right, let’s bring Sam back in. Sam’s here. Sam, what’s I mean, I know you talked about some of the things that the the team had to say after the game, but what was your real takeaways from this one? Yeah. Uh, you know, some a lot of the stuff we already talked about because it just felt like as soon as Anaheim got going and that that first goal went in, which was an ugly one, and the second goal went in, which was maybe even uglier, it just felt like it was going to turn into this. I think I even tweeted out like this this is going to be 98 because I’ve seen this game plenty of times. For whatever reason, Anaheim and Dallas, especially here, always have funky games. And maybe it’s what you guys were just talking about because Anaheim likes to play that rush style. Um, obviously this is a much better team, eight and three or nine and three, won four or five in a row. It’s a it’s a real team. It’s a real competitive team now. But even when they weren’t competitive, they played this way because that’s all they could do. They had a few high-end draft picks. They had some skilled guys, uh, you know, a couple of defensemen that could move the puck up quickly. That was the way they won games was outscoring opponents, right? They they they come in here and if they’re going to win, it’s going to be a funky six to four, uh, five to four type of game where it’s it’s bounces here and there. It’s one team getting three power play goals or another team getting two shorties. It’s just never a clean game really. And I I think outside of maybe one time I can’t remember any 2-1 one- nothing type of of games here at the A between the two teams. And I think it just doesn’t mesh well with Dallas because Dallas plays their best hockey when they play within their structure, right? You you know Golton wants them to play free and wants them to make plays and and use their instinct, but deep down when it comes down to it at the base layer, you have to also play within your structure. And that means doing the the making the right play at the right time. And Dallas did not make the right play at the right time tonight far too often. And I I don’t know if that’s a fatigue thing or it’s just they get sucked in like you guys were just saying, but it doesn’t seem to mesh well whenever they go up against a team that likes to play rush open hockey. And it felt like when the Stars went up in this game, they needed to go up four nothing to bury this this Ducks team. Otherwise, it was going to turn into that because it just kind of feels like they feed off of it the wrong way. And Tyler Sean said afterwards uh you know he said it’s one thing to lose a game or to to lose in in an overtime or to get a point when we feel like we played pretty sound defensively because that’s what they take the most pride in. They they can score goals. They know that they take pride in in their defense and we’ve seen their defense plus a couple of outlier players carrying them early in the season. Tonight was not that way. And that’s why Tyler said tomorrow at practice they they think this is more disappointing because of the defensive let downs, right? The the structure that they wanted to have just wasn’t there tonight. And it happens. You’re going to have these games. Led talks about how 82 games can go a lot of different ways. This was just one of them. The key now is what do they take from it? Do they do they re realize they need to play a little tighter in different areas and realize that you can’t do whatever you want at certain points of the game or it’s going to cost you because you’re not going to be able to play that way and win a whole lot of hockey games. Sam, I want to ask you and Owen both the same question. Sam, what would you say the identity of the Dallas Stars is? Uh, I think a defensive team, a team that makes you earn your goals is is how I like to look at them when they’re on their game. Okay, Owen, I think it’s to be determined. I think that that’s what they want it to be, Sam. I think they want to be a team that suffocates you defensively, hits you on the counter attack constantly and uses its skill to play smart hockey but not always run and gun. But I don’t look I know there’s injuries. I just don’t think less that they have fully realized what that identity is yet. That’s why I asked the question because to me there’s you’re you’re getting close again. They haven’t played terribly, right? No. But you have to, the coaching staff has to go in and ask the team, “What is our team identity?” I don’t know if they know that. And again, it I can understand if they think they can outscore other teams because we’ve seen them put up some goals. And they had tons of chances tonight even after they gave up gold, but I but I just think that they they have to decide as a group. Whatever you guys want to decide, but this is our identity. If we want to play run and gun, coach, let’s play run and gun. He’s going to say, “Nope, that’s not how you win in the play.” Yeah, it’s not going to happen. No, it’s not going to happen. B, there you go. Proof right out there, sirens. That guy’s on my side. Yep. But so they have to buy in to what the coaches are selling 100%. And and that means all 82 games and then 83 on. And it means all 22 or 23 players have to buy into that. And and again, it’s not taking away the offense from anybody, but here’s our identity. we defend first or we score goals first, whatever you guys think is best for you, which I think we know what that’s supposed to be. But I think I don’t think that this team yet is 100% committed and part of that probably is because of some of their skills, you know, I mean that that can create like that and also missing some of the skilled guys, too. But do you think that this is a one-off? Because they’ve been pretty I mean this all seven games of the point streak it was by one goal. It Jake has been pretty good, right? Casey De Smith’s been pretty good. The goalending has been great. Power play was good tonight. The goalending tonight was not. Jake Jake had a rare night where he gave up some goals. And we’ll go through the breakdown of which one. But there was there was outnumbered chances. It’s exchanging chances always like it that it it was a it was a runand gun game. I would say that’s what I I don’t think the identity Star’s first period tonight was was better than adequate. Yeah, but we can say we can say that every every game so far this year. Well, that 20 minutes was good. That 26 good. What I want to say is that from a defensive standpoint, forget the power play goals that those were fun and they created some chances. I thought the Stars gave up very little to the Ducks in the first period. Yeah. Then they completely got caved in second period and they were chasing and that was a and that goes to they can’t stay with an identity yet because I don’t know if they’re committed to the identity. And did they unravel just because Chris Krider’s power play goal in the first moments of the second period? I I don’t know why. I mean I have no idea. I just I don’t see them locking anything down. But they still got the lead. We’ll break it all down. Sam, any final thoughts before we start doing this very, very long video breakdown with Lud? We’re going to make it quick though, Ryan. We’re going to buzz through these. We don’t want to hurt too bad. The only thing I have is I did see Nils Lungquist uh today after the game. Uh that was the first time I’ve seen him at least since since he’s been out. Uh he had was on crutches and had a boot a walking boot on his foot. Uh so just just a note that it’s good to see him around the rink. uh good to to catch up with him for a minute, but um you know, this team still has a few guys. Let’s let’s keep that in mind. They hint is back. This team’s still missing some big pieces, and I think that uh that’ll help things, especially with that identity down the line. Here’s the last question for you, Sam. Who comes back in the lineup first, Jamie Ben or Matt Shane? You know what? I would have said easily Matt Duchain about four or five days ago, but I’m starting to get pretty worried about Matt Shane. Um, you know, we know that he wasn’t in protocol according to to the stars. Neither neither was Roe Hints, but something that lingers this long for an older player. I just I’m not a doctor, but I don’t know a whole lot of things that do that from a hit that’s up high that’s not a concussion. So, I’m a little worried that it’s just something they have to wait until he feels good for a certain number of days. Again, sounds a lot like protocol, but I it’s up in the air now and I I don’t have an answer. I I I’m still gonna say Matt Duchain just because Jamie Ben uh you know has a long time ahead of him, but again, the recovery timeline for Ben was once he starts skating hard, it’s going to start coming rapidly and now we’ve seen him on the ice. So, it’s a toss up right now. I again I’m rooting and hoping that Duchain is proves me wrong. I think Jamie Ben’s back in the lineup before we see Magic. Really? Yep. You know, for me Jamie, I I you know, I I think for Jamie, it’s going to be very similar to Miro, but you have a punctured lung and you’ve got to be able to take some contact. To me, it’s not about the skating and things like that. It’s the contact. And is that And again, Jamie’s Jaime’s a a bull, right? But but I think that knowing how fluky I don’t even know if Sam if you even know how it even originally happened but I don’t even know if Jamie know but but it happened easily to him or apparently can it happen again. What what what you know what I’m saying? So he’s got to get over that hurdle if he’s even worried about maybe he won’t. Yeah. And I’m not saying he’s going to be back the next game just because we showed up at morning skate today. But I do think that after what we saw of and and he was whipping around Sam, he looked like he was not just, you know, see again it’s a different injury. It’s it’s upper body. So it’s not like he’s it’s his legs that are the problem, but he was putting the as Sam said in the pregame show going through the paces pretty hard. That’s a good sign because while it’s still not contact and we’ll have to see that if you’re really worried about falling down and bumping it or you know losing an edge and hitting the boards and and they wouldn’t even let him on the ice. So, I think it’s a good sign. I I’m hopeful that Matt Duchain surprises all of a sudden there he goes and he’s fine. But I just I don’t know. I have that feeling that it’s going to be longer and that we’ll see the captain first. Either way, Stars need both of those players in the lineup. They need they need him back. Yep. All right, Sam, appreciate it. Uh, Stars will have practice tomorrow, I believe, in Fris if I’m not mistaken, before they head out. 11:30. Yep. Correct. And then they head to Nashville. So, the next time you’ll see Sam, he’s going to be in this chair hosting pregame on Saturday cuz I’ll be there for the game and postame, but not pregame on Saturday. I do have something to do in in the morning, Sam. So, I’m really hoping I’m here on time for just me. Can you imagine if Sam is sitting there like Gar in the first Wayne’s World on the set by himself just getting scared and you mean like we have a couple times without you here? Yeah. Yeah, we know. We know what it’s like. We got it. I’m just waiting for Ryan to make that scanner quote from the the TV control room. All right, Sam. Thank you very much. Enjoy the rest of your evening. We’ll talk to you soon. Good night. All right, lads. We have a big list of uh goal breakdowns to go through. So, let’s start. We got a couple minutes before the ad break, so let’s get it going. And the start where we always do in the first period. I thought stars were really good. They got an early power play. It didn’t take very long. Wyatt Johnson, one- nothing Dallas. I mean, the the the same two guys, the same two guys connect again. And it’s Mico Raton and his passing is incredible. But a lot of this had to do with the the coverage for the for the Ducks. You know, on their PK, both of their forwards end up coming out too high. And what it ultimately does is Mirror moves the puck down to Ranton. Rent and already knows there’s that open space in here. Wyatt sees it. Wyatt slides into an area where he can get it and it’s just a one-touch pass right onto the tape of Wyatt and Wyatt lets it go right away. Nico knows where he’s going before the pug. Oh, he knows exactly. And yeah, and I think these two have that connection now. I mean, they hooked up on another beautiful goal later on, but but Wyatt’s just looking for open space because he knows that Ratin will find him, which he does. And then he puts it right on the tape and it’s just a shot and release. And Doell’s, you know, over here. I think Dostell doesn’t even move obviously because there’s netfront presence, but I don’t think he actually sees exactly what Ranton is looking at. He was he leaned to his left to guard here and by the time the he started to turn the puck was almost on Wyatt and and and the Renon just barely but this this is because those two forwards get out too high and really you never want two of them to go. One should go and so they open up that rope hints he’s a big body. He’s a big large kid. Uh, I say kid, he was younger than us, but big man. He’s exactly where he’s supposed to be in the front of the net. Well, and it paid off for him later on. He gets hit in the hip and gets a goal. So that I mean, he ropes really good at that. He’s not uh shy of being in front of the goalie. Ben, look, the Ducks had only four scoring chances in the first period. The shots were eight to seven, but it was all Dallas. Nine to four in chances, three to one in high dangers. The only one that was really tricky was Frank Vrono had a turnaround shot right at the side left side of the crease. Jake was made a really good save on early because Vrono’s a goal scorer and you get one-on-one down low. Those are tricky. After that, it was five on five. Stars creating chances. Kuba had a one-time on a power play and no big deal. Stars get a power play again. And this one, Luds, this looks like the kid absorbed his old his stepdad. I was going to say his billet dad, but the stepdad is great. Joe Pavvelski was ding channeled by Wyatt Johnson on the second power play goal. Yeah. And and again, what I like is, you know, the puck is getting to the net. And so again, it’s Mirro, you know, we’ve been kind of talking a lot about Harley and gets out there and gets pucked to the net. This is how the the penalty was drawn and you you can’t really see it. I mean, but this is a stick on the hands. Unfortunately for the Ducks, there’s a referee standing right here staring right at him. Otherwise, you probably wouldn’t even see it. But there because I went, man, that was a little soft call. But when you see it from a different angle, there you go. It’s a penalty. Now, what I like about this whole thing, and it starts with Hastenan, is that Hastenan now is starting to get into more of a shooter mentality, but the clean draw. I mean, Hins just wins this thing right straight back. And I mean, and it it’s clean. I don’t even know if their Sentiment was ready to go, but it’s clean. And again, anytime you’re on the power play, that’s why you can pick the size you want. But there’s the lane. Hkin sees the lane. and he doesn’t dish it off. And this is where I want you to look at the stick of Wyatt. It’s out in front of him. So, both of these defenders, they can’t pick up his stick because he’s like Joe Povvelski. Ding. Okay. But, but a lot of the players like for a defenseman when that stick is out in front you can’t really get it. But what Wyatt does he keeps it out in front of him and then the shot comes and now Wyatt stick is available and those two defenseman they can’t grab that stick. And when it sticks like that and then now obviously the the hand eye comes into play with Wyatt and he gets his gets his stick on it right here and puts it past Docel who who you know he’s being partially screened by Wyatt but great shot by Miro and then again Wyatt’s just money. So Wyatt and Mo came into the day Johnston and Ranson and tied for the team lead in goals for seven. He gets his eighth, he gets his ninth in the first period. Stars take a two nothing lead and Wyatt went from being four goals away from 100 in his career to two. So that was goals set 97 and 98 getting to the triple digits pretty fast. Jason Robertson had a really nice wraparound a chance right after that. Dostall was on his his right post pushed to his left went full stretch and Robo had it but Dostall got it with a post. Really good save. Why? Because then the Stars take a penalty. Sam Steel for tripping inside the final minute of the first period. And that’s going to carry over to our next segment where we talk about what turned and changed because the tide went completely the other direction. Second period on here on the DLS Stars postgame show. Oh man, don’t you know did it take a different direction? Didn’t it ever? Ah, false here. Chris Bear football, maybe a bonfire or two.

I don’t know if this was the exact turning point of the hockey game, but it didn’t help because the Stars feeling really good about their game after 20 minutes, I would think. Up two nothing. Really didn’t give up much to the Ducks. I mentioned that the Ducks only had four scoring chances in the first period. Three of those came on the power play. None of them were high danger. Two of them were at the end of the period. So, they literally gave him almost nothing. And then enter former Ranger Chris Krider. 116 into period number two. Power play goal 2-1 and the Ducks return fire begins with that. Didn’t we do a podcast with somebody where the name of their podcast called Chaos something? Yes. What chaos? What is it? That’s with Pete Blackburn and DJ Bean. They are part of the All City Network. Oh, are they? That’s our national well that’s what this goal was. It was chaos. This was awful. Like talk about people changing. And this is Colin Blackwell jumping up into the play now. Again, they’re short-handed. So, he’s going to jump up, try to join the brush a little bit here. And again, you’re leading two-0, but after it breaks down, Blackwell decides to go off. Now, you have a team that’s on the power play and they’re heading back the other direction. So, Blackwell goes off. Mero had jumped into the play to try to, you know, score goal. Well, Mirill’s got his hand up nearer here. He’s ready to jump off. He wants to change, too. But he recognizes that uh-oh, they’re going the other direction. Well, then the next clip you’re going to see where this is Oscar Beck. He’s changing, too. Now, Mero’s going back and he’s going, “Oops, I got to get to the middle of the ice.” Well, as he’s heading back, you can look over there on the boards. There goes Essa. He’s changing. And then I think in the next clip, you’re going to see a defenseman. Well, maybe you don’t can’t see it, but there was another defenseman trying There he is. He’s way over there in the corner. He’s trying to get onto the ice. All of a sudden, well, that’s where everything breaks down. And then this one here to me, Jake wants this back, right? Oh, does he ever. Now, coming into this game, Chris Krider, New York Rangers, scored all of his goals for the most part in front of the net. He had scored six out of seven of the goals that he has right in front. This one here is from about what 36 ft 37 ft. This one here, when I saw Jake in his body language, I think Jake knew right away. Oops, I’m off my angle. Oops. Oops. So, 38 ft according to the stat sheet. Oh, I was close. You were very close. Yeah. So, the top of the circle must be about 37 38 feet. Well, there we go. Now, I know that I’ll get it right from now on. So, that was a poor goal. My opinion by Jake, but everybody had parts to blame in that goal. I I mean, for all the breakdowns, you gave up a goal on a shot from the top of the circle with no traffic and he wasn’t having to go side to side. He’s square. And I wrote down soft from Jake, too. Like, look, Crider’s a goal scorer. He’s got a great shot. got to make that save. Well, you you can tell by a goalie. I mean, you see when you see the hunched shoulders, you know, like they they know they’re like the next one, LS, is not on Jake. It’s on Lean Bishell. At least the last part of it. But this is one of those I mean, first of all, okay, so Crider, that’s a rush chance cuz it’s it’s not an a twoon-one, but it’s basically a a partial breakaway. He’s going down the wing. Miro’s chasing him. Here comes an entry rush that goes horribly wrong. Yeah, but there’s another change. And again, you don’t change when you’re coming back to your own end. You’re supposed to change as you’re going up ice. Now, look at you can see some legs over the boards changing here. Someone’s coming off. Someone’s coming on. Now, the play is already at the blue line heading south. In other words, towards your own net. Can’t catch up. So, next thing you know, there’s a race back. Now Bishell sees him, but somehow his feet aren’t moving. Now there’s the next clip here. Bishial’s beat there. He has no chance to recover again. Big man trying to turn outside speed. I don’t want to get to mess up your flow as you put in there. What am I? We went back. Yeah, I looked at that again. He never once looked. Does he even know he’s there? He does. He does. Outside the blue line. He knows he’s there because he sees him coming up the ice, but he’s looking at the puck from the blue line all the way in. He never looks. But you, but he doesn’t have to look. You shouldn’t have to look because peripheral you, you know, he’s there. But I don’t think he judged his speed. No, he did not because and Petro probably could do a pretty good job here as it gets down to about the faceoff dot area. And he and Petro, he’s got a pretty long stick, but but Bishel when he turns, he he tries to get that big train going the other direction and he’s beaten. And this is just a pass across the crease and Morren just taps it right in. Now, you know, could could Pro have kind of stretched out a little bit more, maybe even dove and got a stick on the ice and tried to help out Jake. But here, I want you to see Jake. Th this puck is just starting to leave that pass, the stick, and Jake’s already starting to cheat to the other side. Now, again, I have a thing about trust, but that one there, I’m guessing that Jake had read that that Leon was beat there, and he knows that there was a pass coming. He couldn’t catch up to it, though. I wonder if he he glanced and said, “Oh, this is trouble.” Yeah, I’m sure he did. So, Ian Moore, I was just trying to to Yeah. Did I say more? You said Moore. Ian Moore. I thought I said Morren. Guess what? There was an Ian Morren, too. Ian Moore. There was an Ian Moran. Moran. Well, Morren Moran. Yeah. 23 years old. 10th NHL game, seventh this year in his career. First NHL goal. Jumped in the play. Look, from from a Ducks perspective, we we’ve we many times look at a goal from a Stars perspective and we’ll break it down and say I didn’t like this that it’s a pretty nice bang bang play by the two Ducks players to get that on the rush, make the pass. They took advantage of bad coverage. Well, that that again that happens when you know it’s their fifth and sixth defensive. Sometimes they get turned around and both of them I think were to blame on that. Okay, so it’s 2-2 quick two quick goals. uh less than 3 minutes into the second period. However, the Stars get back. Ranson denied from a one-timer from the inside of the left circle. Great chance. Good good save by Dostall. And remember that throughout the rest of the game, there are going to especially in the third period, Lucas Dostall is going to have some big time saves that while the Stars lost seven to five, it could have been 87. So, they take the lead. Our guy Sam Steel has had a nice week, Luds, as far as some offense. Three assists. uh two games ago picks up assist number four as he sends Tyler Sean away for a goal for Sean’s first ever goal against the Ducks. Yeah, that was a big one. Apparently that was the lead in for Razer and those guys talk about the only team that Tyler had. Oh, they must have jumped on it again and again. Yeah. Yeah, but I’ll tell you what, right at the end of this, but but you’re right. Sam Steel picks up a puck. He does make a nice pass. A little bit of a turnover, but it and it actually started with Miro. Mero kind of broke the play up at his own blue line. Seal jumps on it. Tyler Sean gets loose, right? He’s free. But I want you to watch the player on the left right here. That stick hits Tyler stick. And I think Well, it took some heat off of that shot. You think a little change up? I think it I think it caught the stall off a little bit because as Tyler’s taking that shot, that goalie is getting ready. He sees him leaning into it. He’s, you know, basically pacing when the shot comes off. Think he going higher than this? Well, I don’t know what it was, but you can see the puck kind of puck kind of changes a little bit. I just think it changes speed a little bit. And you can see right here, right as Tyler’s shooting it, stick comes in, taps him on the shaft, changes the trajectory or the the speed of the puck a little bit and maybe catches Dustall off guard, but anyways, it goes underneath and there’s a big goal for Tyler. Doall not the first NHL goalie to get beat by Tyler Sean from the hash mark. Yep, there’s that’s a spot he can hit. So 3-2 stars. They gave up two quick ones, but eight minutes into the second period, they’re back into the lead. steel assist number five on the season as I mentioned four in his last three games. Mo or sorry uh that was the hasten and you talked about breaking up the play. He picks up an assist. Miro had three assists on the first three stars goals. How about that? Now we go for a little while. It goes all the way until the 14minute mark and this one. What were you saying about Sam Steel? Four assists in his last three games. Not so much on this one. He turned this puck over. Well, let’s talk about this because I didn’t like the goal from Jake’s perspective, but Cutter Goce is redot right now. Yeah. Yeah. Well, and you he is what is that 11 now? 11 and 13 games I believe at the time he scored. I haven’t checked he was tied for first I believe because Sydney Crosby had two goals at the time that he and Crosby were tied for the league lead with 11. And I’m not sure how it’s shaken up. I can take a look in a second. Yeah, but this Sam Steel turned this puck over and then what Seal does and I didn’t even hand him out, but he he’s at the top of the circle here on his way back and what does that say? Nope. Oh yeah, I I wrote nope because that that’s where the pass is supposed to go and I think Jake knows that it’s not going to get there because actually we’re doing a pretty good job coverage in front except Steel doesn’t come back. His feet kind of stopped and he’s chasing back. Yeah, this is another one. And again, go shake and release a puck, right? We know that he by the way goals he is tied with Crosby at 11. There are two games still going on but right now he’s the NHL leader. Yeah. Bottom line is he beat Jake from the from the dot. Five. Fivefold. That’s Yeah. So that’s two of the first three goals against that are like there are times where we can say look Jake’s really on his game. Those two were not great, but they’re still tied until they weren’t three minutes later and the Ducks get their first lead before the end of the second period. Well, this is a power play goal and I I think and again, you’ve heard me plenty times talk about you have to keep your foot feet moving as you’re coming back into your zone. How about a power play rush goal? Yeah. And and to me, Ritzkovian, he stop you I I had it back a little further. his feet kind of stopped near the blue line as he’s coming back. If he comes all the way back here again, look at look at where where Jake is. Jake’s coming out. Talent, you know, I think he’s he’s trusting what’s happening in front of him or at least you want to see that because he knows have his back. Don’t want that pass to come across. And if you know, if Britzy Ritz here just keeps his feet moving all the way back, he probably catches him or at least gets back to get sick in that passing lane. He doesn’t. And again, this is just an empty net goal. And that’s a tough one. Bishial jumps out to the left. Leouchkin rightly jumps to the middle to cover the danger guy, but Ritzgovian doesn’t read that and cover the backside guy. Yeah. And again, I you know, the passes and again there Sean would be better on this. I I’m always been like if a puck is coming through the blue paint, you know, the the top circle there for the stick in there. Well, yeah. You know, again, I’m I know that the goalies I played with, they always said, man, if it comes through the paint, I got to be able to, you know, redirect it a little bit. But again, I I put it on people that are coming back into the zone there. Well, that got us through all our breakdowns, but we still have another period and five more goals to talk about in our next segment, plus your Super Jets. Let’s roll through them next here on the DLS Stars postgame show. Have you heard about our new shirt collection? I have actually a couple times. You pimped it out quite a bit, don’t you? Every every day. Yeah. This is our DL LS LL face off collection. And uh actually the green one’s the the hot seller. I don’t know if we’ve hitten our our mark for our our little Hooters party, but sounds like we’re getting a pass from Ben. So, we might get our shirts anyways, even if you folks haven’t. I would say we’ve done a pretty nice job pushing and selling this on our show. I I would like to know is that all just those are we haven’t hit 25 shirts. Is that what we’re saying here for those shirts? for those shirts. Those collection, this collection, not all shirts that we offer, just these two. You know, the Fins had a good night, though. We got to finish the mafia. Big points for Fins. Yeah, the Finn the F that those Fins are having a party tonight cuz Well, maybe not. They didn’t win the hockey, but but the Randon just keeps on going. So, the Finish Mafia shirt, the finisher. Uh, what else we got here? We got the moose. We got the moose up there. We got the big moose up there. Oh, yeah. There we go. Moose shirt. I don’t understand why this isn’t the hottest shirt out. This dude just does things every single night. He’s unbelievable. Go ahead. I’m done. Let’s I’m looking up right now because we’re talking about Die Hard. Mirro Hastenan four assist night. I believe that that is a career. Well, that’s I’m not doing my numbers. Let’s go back to his whole career because let’s talk about the entire Yeah, tied his careerh high which he had last March against the San Jose Sharks. So, second time in his career. But let’s talk about being die hard. You want to get all the access to the writing that we have here on the show. Whether it’s Sam talking about the stars, uh Ron, who’s our new Mavs beat writer, Jeff with the Rangers, Clarence with the Cowboys. Cowboys have a lot of stuff going on. Obviously, the horrible tragedy today um with Marcus uh Marshon Neland. Um and of course, shirts, discounts on shirts, events. We talked to a bunch of dieards about the DLS Stars Takeover coming up on December 7th, which is already sold out here. We might have another one the second half of the season, so be ready for that.

We still have the third period to break it down, but let’s do it now. Here’s our PNC player of the game. Of course, brought to you by PNC Banks. Miro, as I mentioned, four assists, tied his careerhigh for a single game. Miko Ransin, goal, two assists, continues his incredibly hot start to the season. Wyatt scores two. But boy, when you lose seven to five, it’s hard to be named the player of the game. The Ducks really spread this around. Now, Chris Crider scored two goals. We had couple of assists for Floren and Troy Terry. Goal assist for Leo Carlson and Cutter Goautier. I actually thought for giving up five goals, Lucas Dost, especially in the third period. I was leaning the same way. What do you think? I was leaning the same. I would go with Krider, but Dost made some saves that obviously allowed them to win the hockey game, especially in the third, which we’ll get to. Um, Crider scored the first goal of the second period to start their offense. I thought that was huge. And then, we’re going to talk about this one. He scores the second one early in the third period, which made it 5-3, and the Stars never tied the game. I I didn’t like it because you’ve got Essa on one side, you have Mirro Hayeskin standing on the other side, Crider standing right in front, and neither one of them did anything to Crider. Now again, he’s a big man that plants himself, but you can slow him down before he gets there or at least be available to take his stick. Neither one of them did it. Okay, so Chris Krider is our PNC player of the game. Big thank you to PNC Bank for sponsoring this really cool Main Street pop-up branch location. Ryan, do you have those photos? We were out there tonight. They were there on Tuesday and Thursday and of course tonight. There’s Sam in the middle. How could we tell Sam from the rest of us? Jimmy T, a big die hard with his daughter came out. Great support. That was earlier on. Luds was the star of the show. He was all over the place. Everybody wanted to piece of this guy. Yeah, look at that. He was That was before you signed your photo. And then I think you did I Oh, I did sign. You were about to sign Hatchers as well. I said, “Sign it as Kevin.” And you said, “Well, you have another story, but maybe not.” You know, actually got another brother. Okay. And then look at this. Never stop growing PNC Bank. Let’s Did you ever You were trying to talk your way into getting one of those. Did you really? Yeah. They’re getting to me. Sly dog. He said, “I want one of these signs.” And I have the perfect place I’m putting it. And then a whole bunch of people. You know, that was the only bad thing. When you’re at an event and you’re standing around next to Craig Lewig, you might as well be in the corner because beline for the There he is. Does he sign? Oh lord. Okay, let’s move on. Ryan, big thank you to PNC Bank. PNC Financial Services Group Incorporated. PNC Bank, an official partner of Dallas. Okay, so let’s let’s do this third period breakdown, then we’ll get to our super chats. We may have to do a couple minutes overall second of the night comes at 16 seconds of the third period. It’s a 4-3 hockey game and he tips one in from Drew Helison less than 20 seconds into the third period. You talk about goals given up in the first minute of the period, the last minute period, having such big momentum shifts. This is a huge easy goals. It’s too easy. I mean, again, he’s a big body makes he’s made his living in front of the net and you know that coming in. Yeah, you do. And like I said, Hkin and uh Essi did nothing and his sick was available. They were both just standing on one side of each other. like cigar store Indian. Didn’t it sort of feel a little different because it’s not a power play, but he was open the way that Wyatt Johnson repeatedly was open between the mid to low slot to the top of the crease where you’re wondering why isn’t or the because Wyatt had a couple other tips where you’re sitting there going, why are they not putting a stick or a guy on this guy? Yeah. And I I was cur both both goalenders are kind of like waving a white flag around tonight. Well, the uh the this was not a pillow fight game. This was a slugfest because minute 50 into the third period. Well, wait a second. What do you mean by slugfest? Offensive rolls back and forth. No, this there wasn’t too much contact. This wasn’t a fight fest. This wasn’t a in the trenches slog. This was a we’re going to exchange haymakers on offense. Stars get a power play. They had already gone two for two. They go three for three because Mir uh Mo Ranton and scores a power play goal at 150. So answer right back. So he went from 5-3 down to 54. Bloods, this is a great spot. Mo knows how to get to that far post. But the setup from Wyatt was unbelievable. I mean, if you haven’t seen it, you need to go and watch it. And and Wyatt who’s standing to the right side of Dustall basically against the post or even with the post. as a right-handed shot. He gets a nice pass, but he just drags it enough and just lets it come right straight across the crease to a wideopen ratin. And I love the expression on Ratin right away cuz he was even surprised. I mean, he was he was surprised, not surprised that why it did it, but that it all played out like that. And he just he went, “Oh my, oh my.” Cuz it was an unbelievable. And the surprise is that’s 100% intentional. Oh jeez. This isn’t a tip play where it actually You take your when it hits your blade, you kind of take it and you turn your your blade over and you sometimes you’ll pull it with the toe of it and he just does it and lets it just slide right past right across the front of the creek. It’s beautiful. I mean it and it was all by design from Wyatt and Wyatt gets the assist. Robo picked up a helper on that one and Ranson and his eighth goal of the season. So he gets back within one of the team lead. Remember Wyatt scored two so he’s at nine. Ranson at eight. That was his second of three points and it’s a 5-4 game. And you’re thinking, okay, well, you gave up one really early, got one right back. The This was a trade-off of penalties all night. Both teams were in the box a lot. Stars go back on another penalty this one because Ransin gets called for slashing. I don’t know if you saw this because you were here, but he Ransin and Drew Hellison got into it in the first period behind the play. It looked like Helison almost, you know how every now and then it seems like almost once a game rant and draws a call where somebody just takes him down, he goes flying. Looked like Helison almost slew footed, not quite, but it got caught up, went down. Ranton gets up and just absolutely tomahawkked him with a a slash. The referee didn’t see it. And then Hellison went back at him with a cross check. And then Mo hit him hard again. And then he took his number and drilled him against the boards. Well, that was in the first period. You get to the third period and this time he got caught, but I think uh Justin Ritzovian might have saved the goal as he had a it looked like he had a stick check on goateier. Would have been otherwise an open net back door play. I didn’t see it. I think I was putting a wet towel over our producer. Oh yeah, he was stressing out over some It was pretty nice. But then the Stars get another power play again because Ian Moore got a high sticking call and they had two grade A chances. First from Wyatt at the top of the crease. Wide open tip. Good save by Dost Stall. Then Robo’s wide open in the left circle. Skates in. Dostall makes the save. And then Leo Carlson short-handed goal. Oddman rush. One-time. The pass from Troy Terry. Backhand sauce is beautiful. What’s going on here? Well, I didn’t like the way Mural I mean he allows he’s playing off that close post again. you know, he allows a pass to come across and it basically wide open net. So buried it and it was it was almost like a the three across but but again you as a defenseman you got to pick your poison and and if Mural plays a little bit more to the net you you kind of let Jake want challenge tell Jake again with your body and where your stick is. I’m not gonna allow that pass to come across. Once it once it does, they have and guess what? That the game-winning after the goal though, Stars are down six to four. Radic Foxa wide open one-time in the slot. Great save by Dosal. Robo gets another great a chance. Save by Dostall. Sean one-time right in the middle between the hash marks. Save Dost Stall. This is why Luds and I were talking about maybe Dostall is our player of the game in a 75 game. You usually when a goalie gives up five, you don’t go, “Yeah, he had a great night.” I mean, Luds 6’4 down. He stopped one or he was sorry, they were up 6’4. He stopped three great A’s. It was 54. He stopped two on that power. He’s a huge part of why the Stars didn’t I thought we were going with him as the player of the game. You said you wanted Crider with two power. No, I said power with two goals. I said Bull. Really? got you can’t go wrong with either one of them. But that third period from Dstall fantastic. Well, Dar weren’t done though because Roe hints would score first goal back. Surprisingly, Roe only two goals this season. A little late on the offensive. He does. I wouldn’t really say that Ro scored that goal. He got credit for it. Okay. Randon had scored it off Roe. Yeah, there you go. Okay, fair enough. But he did. Uh that was Mero’s fourth assist cuz he played it to Randon. Randon took the shot. That was his third point. And Roe, look, I love the fact that coming off an upper body injury, he’s right out in front of the net repeatedly because when you have Rantin, Robo, Wyatt, this was uh five on five, by the way. When you have those guys on the ice, Miro, you need netfront presence and Ro’s giving him that. And and without the net front presence like that, a lot of those passing lanes don’t open up because, you know, generally it sucks people out of where they want to be because they’re trying to move that guy from out from from in front of the net. Unfortunately, Stars go for the extra attacker and it doesn’t work because they turn the puck over with just under two minutes to go. It’s a threeon one and this looked like showtime almost hot dogging out there to me that that there’s the identity of this team where where either one two of those guys could have just buried it in the empty net, but they wanted to tic-tac-toe it right into the net. So, it’s kind of like, hey, this is what we do, you know, and and again, you’ve got a head coach that is probably saying, “Guys, let’s go.” I mean, we score goals, so let’s have some fun. And and they’re having some fun, and they’re they’re winning some hockey games now. So, but yeah, I was surprised when either the first player or the second player didn’t put in the empty net and slides it over again. It was it was a really nice play even though there’s no goender. don’t have a stat for it, but I’m curious how many times in the NHL a team will give up three power play goals against and still win the hockey game. But they did score two power play goals and get a short-handed goal. So essentially the special teams, there was a lot of that going on today. A lot of that. All right, we have a bunch of super chats. We got to do that in overtime. Let’s do that now. Thank you to those who tuned in on our television platforms. Check out alldls.com. Don’t forget to like and subscribe. All right, Luds, super chat time. Roll up your sleeves. This is it. This is how we close the show today. No show tomorrow. Pregame show with Luds and Sam on Saturday and then I’ll be there for the game and for our postgame show. Chili Dog 69. Nice with a Casey to Smith and 99 Cup here. Even so, goar. Yeah. You don’t you don’t give up your your fandom just because of one game like this. No. All right. Entertainment. Bing bang. L. This is one of two of your favorite super chat names. Finger blaster 91. Finger blaster. Oh yeah, there’s another one out there, but not I don’t I haven’t seen the moose yet tonight. Oscar Beck and you’re after the cup. I can count on three fingers how many solid games Harley has had so far. When did he become a matador? Olay that. You got a point. What do you think? I I don’t know. I I I don’t know. And it’s more about the defending for me than than anything else. And so, um, yeah, and he’s been he’s been, you know, up until a few games ago, I thought he’s been getting better and working on it and but I but I agree his his game is is a little loose, too loose for me right now. Well, they put up seven goals against the defending Stanley Cup champion Florida Panthers the other night. Put up seven more against the Stars. This team can score, so don’t take it personally, but also kind of take it personally. Bird Doyles with a Lungquist and Niels Lungquist and you’re after the Cup. Luds, what do you think about Rockstar delaying the release of GTA 6? That’s Grand Theft Auto Sticks again. What do you have any feelings on the matter? Uh, got to say no. Okay. No feelings. No feelings. All right. We go to the next one. CAO TK Owen. Oh, wait. Sorry. It’s a hasten and a rantin. How many oddman rushes did Dallas allow tonight? I didn’t count them up. Huh? How many How many oddman rushes again? You didn’t count them up? Well, I mean, I have them written, but I didn’t I didn’t add them up. They’re slipping. Do you really want me to sit here and say? No, I don’t. Exactly. You know what the answer is? I don’t know. Too many. Bing bang. Next. Untit or UN trumpet with a Hastkin or sorry a Lungquist and a Ouer. Of course Otter wants some of those back but this is way more on the defense poor play in front of him than on him. Seven goals are not on Otter. Two or three. Everybody shares in the blame on this one. I mean I agree with it but you know h have we not seen a few of these too many from Otter this year? There just the soft one. I’m going to push back just in the sense that there have been plenty of nights where Otter has either won him the game or I’m not disagreeing with that. I’m just saying the soft ones. There’s been a few, but but I also think that you can’t get too complacent when you have a great goalie and just assume he’s always going to make that save because even the best ones let him. But we’re talking about some here that are kind of routine. I’d be curious where his his numbers are at. Now look, this team is a work in progress, but yeah. Bing bang. Okay, Eric with a big one. Jason Robertson in a 99 cup here. Why was Robo so absent in my opinion? Also, Pavvelski Ding, that was funny time. Do you think he was absent in this one or do you think he was just over Well, he he was less noticeable than he has been. Right. I just I’m wondering if if he’s getting frustrated with something not going in the net. And again, yeah, he’s got to be great. I mean, he had two assists tonight. He was also dash three. He’s not into assists. He runs on He runs on goals. He runs on goals. And I think the assists are good point thing for him. But I think what gets him turning and burning is to be able to put the puck in the net. Yeah, I do. It hasn’t been lately. We’re going to Ardell with a Lquist and a Sean. Oh, sorry. A Sedor and a Sean. He clarified the sky is not falling. The sky is falling. Luds, don’t run the producer off the show. We don’t have any left. Is fun with drops and graphics. Stick taps to Sergeant F. Sergeant. Well, we promoted him. Oh, we did. Somebody did. He was private. Private first class. They’ve moved him up to sergeant. Cool. What’s What’s about the sergeant? Major. Master Sergeant. What? Yeah, there’s probably a Yeah, probably. Then he gets major. Corporal, colonel, fourstar general. General. Yeah, we got a ways to go before we start handing out stars. Uh, Willis with a hastin and rantin ghost stars. Kujo banjo likes boys. That seems inappropriate. Save yourself, Willis. Come on, Willis. Then this one, you don’t want to talk about appropriate. We have the Grundo Gobbler with a Darien Hatcher and you’re after the Cup. I don’t see how Robo is worth a contract yet. Well, that’s ridiculous. He’s absolutely worth a contract. But see that but there that’s kind of where Robo is maybe in his head a little bit because he knows what’s going to get him the payday. So that’s why I said the assists aren’t what what’s going to get him going. But he’s also butt cracks and grundles. His balls offer is going to be 10 million. He’s an RFA. So it’s going to be a huge number because he scored almost what is it? I think it’s almost 180 goals. Yeah. Like he’s he’s he’s trying to set himself up though. Uh, bing bang burned oils with a hatcher in year after the cup. Get old luds to couch to couch the Oh, excuse me. I can’t read. Get old luds to coach the defense. Mhm. There there’s some things I’d like to say or do, but All right. Uh, I think we’re going to skip the last one. Willis is getting inappropriate. Oh, wait. Do we have any more? Is that Okay, that’s a good way to end. We already are six minutes into overtime. Are we? Oh, yeah. Okay. So, all right. Final once again, huge thank you to our friends and partners over at PNC Bank. They put on a great promotion. Excellent event. Those hats were everywhere both Tuesday night and Thursday. It seemed like when you scan the crowd, they were those white Dallas Stars hockey hair mullet hats everywhere. But, but the thing is is even if you’re not into the the mullet thing, the hats are great hats. Yeah. And you can actually you can just take it right out. No big deal. Look at that. All and it was free. They’re free. Great looking hats. And I know all sorts of people were trying to You know how many they had made up? How many? 30,000. No wonder they were handing off. 30,000 hats they had. Boy, they uh they went big and the the whole barberh shop setup. Yeah. It was great. Fancy. So nice job PNC Bank. And of course all of the dieards that came out and said hi to LSDs maybe said hi to Sam or me recognize. Oh wait, you’re on that show with Greg Lewig, right? So yeah, I think we even sent the mens to to the boss Brandon, didn’t I? Think so. Yeah. Yeah. Ben was videotaping one of them. The uh the old president the the North Texas region of uh you look like a second grader with a backpack Halloween who led. Oh no, that was our boss Brandon. There’s two different Brandon. Oh, that’s the only one I’m talking about. You’re talking about the Who sent that message to head of the of All City? Oh, our CEO. I thought you were talking about PNC Bank. Got me there.

The Dallas Stars had their 7-game point streak (4-0-3) snapped tonight with a 7-5 loss to the Anaheim Ducks at American Airlines Center. It was Dallas’ first regulation loss since a 5-1 home defeat at the hands of the Columbus Blue Jackets on October 21st. Wyatt Johnston scored two power play goals in the opening period as the Stars raced out to a 2-0 lead. However, Anaheim scored four times in the second period and three more in the third and that offensive outburst proved too much for the Stars. Miro Heiskanen finished with a four-assist night, while both Wyatt Johnston (2 goals, 1 assist) and Mikko Rantanen (1 goal, 2 assists) tallied three-point games. Tune in to the DLLS Stars Post Game Show as we guide you through all the action from tonight’s game, discuss the key storylines, provide in-depth breakdowns, check in with Sam reporting from the AAC and take your Super Chats.
