Texas Stars Playoffs Preview

Stargazing: A Dallas Stars Puckcast | Defending Big D

The Dallas Stars organization has what we might call a good problem this season: Every team is positioned to make a big run at the top prize, and all of them want the best players for the effort. How does that shake out for the Austin Metro squad?

Regular Stargazing co-host Mark Zimmerman invited back 100 Degree Hockey's Stephen Meserve for a long talk about the Texas Stars' postseason, which officially begins on Friday, April 28 in Rockford. In this edition, learn all about:

• which players to watch at every position,
• how the team has prepared for the playoffs,
• a closer look at potential opponents,
• who's most likely to get the call-up if the Dallas Stars make a deep Stanley Cup run,
• the many ways in which leadership has shaped this year's squad,
• and why their special teams could make the difference in a long climb to the Calder Cup Finals.

All this, plus a look inside We Win Here, Stephen's new book with Sean Shapiro...what more could you want? Let's go Stargazing – in Cedar Park. Brought to you by the good folks at the Green Team, Greening Law, P.C.
