The Dallas Stars had a good showing in Milan. How will the fallout change their approach to the NHL trade deadline? @wes-lawrence.bsky.social and @hitzicestat.bsky.social have had way too much time to think about it. Catch their new hot #TexasHockey takes in this edition of Stargazing.

So I created an AHL award. Years ago, I had the idea to recognize great AHL players who aren't on NHL contracts. Today, a group of league media is launching The Bruce Boudreau Award. The highlight was an interview with Boudreau. I'm incredibly proud to finally get this out. boudreauaward.com

Multiple things can be true. Glen Gulutzan has coached the Stars before. He's also making less money than Pete DeBoer was. Those are facts. But calling it a lazy hire, is well, lazy. My latest for @DMagazine www.dmagazine.com/sports/2025/...

dmagazine.com

Here's Why the Stars Hired Glen Gulutzan

It isn't because he's safe. Or that the contract is cheap. It's because Jim Nill believes in the power of change—and that might be the biggest risk Dallas' general manager has taken.

We did ask what would happen when the Colorado Avalanche got desperate, and the Dallas Stars gave us an answer. So how do they find one that isn't, well, wrong? @wes-lawrence.bsky.social and @hitzicestat.bsky.social talk it over, and you actually have time to listen before Game 5!

Texas is so randomly beautiful. There I was in the Davis Mountains a few summers ago, minding my own business, when I came upon this scene. Of course I had to stop and take this photo. As Georgia O'keefe noted, in Texas, it's always about the sky.

A Miro Heiskanen note from ⁦‪Elliotte Friedman’s latest 32 Thoughts Blog. He’s absolutely correct that the Norris Trophy voting has more or less turned into an Art Ross Trophy for defenseman. They should create a trophy for the top scoring blue liner (The Bobby Orr).
