  1. Called the Ray firing last season. Good dude but there are better Special Teams Coaches available. Tocchet is available. Maybe Footer for the D.

  2. Please get a damn microphone for who is asking questions. I absolutely hate to not hear a question and able
    To hear some random reply.

  3. How does a GM keep his job after trading away one of his top players under the guise of building a playoff contender, then lose in the first round to a team whose top 2 players were out for the series? AMAZING!

  4. I liked this team too, but thing is they changed team mid season completely. and lets be honest, building chemistry takes time. Miko Nate combo took few years to polish. We are strong next year too, and i think team will glue better now and be better, just because they will have whole season together to get their shit together

  5. All they had to do was play smart defense. To many stick checkers on defense. Stars were tough we were not. Shameful meltdown.

  6. So Colton was the only one hurt? Makar definitely seemed off. Was this EJ's last series? So many questions yet all we hear is how disappointed they are. Oh and how hard is it to get a room mic so we can hear the questions?

  7. How soon the mid casuals have forgotten the Avs were one of the most stagnant teams in the league before the trade and were literally at risk already of missing the playoffs. Lol. Good lord.

  8. I thought the front office did a phenomenal job this year. It’s natural that fans will be up in arms and pointing fingers because of the end result but they built a team that had the potential to win it all and it took balls to make a lot of those moves knowing this could still happen.

    Sometimes, it simply just doesn’t work out the way it seemingly should and that’s the beauty and the horror of sports fandom 🤷🏼‍♂️

  9. Stars fan here. Your PP didn’t get it done so they did the easy thing… fired the PP coach. It’s the easiest out your management could take. Bednar will get the 20 game assessment next year. Team comes in cold the first 20, they’ll dump him. Also, tbh Blackwood was merely just ok in net. Just not good enough. Not sure how they’re fixing that. I really liked Wedgewood when he played for the Stars. Could give him a more intensive look? Anywho, I’d say “good luck” but I wouldn’t mean it.

  10. Head coach Bednar and GM MacFarland should go as well. Bednar has not gotten this team out of the first round three years in a row. MacFaland can't answer the second center position over the last three years. Not to make a change in the management/coaching and expect a different outcome is crazy. End of story.

  11. The trust is GONE. Change the GM! Dallas got underpriced Mikko because you sticked in your 11.75M which was the worst offer in the market, it would have taken only 250-500k more to keep him. Mac's and Makar's long contracts are just outdated so it was insane to compare those (market prices are different now).

  12. I wanna get some EXPLANATIONS for trading Rantanen. You guys rushed and he ended in Dallas for just 12 million per season (they got the discount because you didn't want to negotiate more). Mikko's worth is 14M in this current market, you guys blew it big time. Rantanen scored 12 goals in 7 games even though Dallas played WITHOUT Heiskanen and Robo. It's more points than all newcomers TOGETHER. FU!

  13. all these people freaking out over nothing. next season is gonna be insane, wont have a brutal start with georgiev and having to dig ourselves out of a hole for the rest of the season. yall need to relax, yeah it sucks, wound is fresh, but the team we put together had dallas on the ropes all but one game. just didnt close out 3 games that we shouldve won.

  14. Please – Rantanen sale was a total disaster. You just did not respect a really good professional player and you actually ruined his best friends/co-players trust on yourselves. The entire hockey community is laughing at you and you know it. The reality is, that Mikko by him self knocked down the whole team of yours. Sorry – but this is the truth and just have to suck it up.

  15. and here we thought sakic had cojones ……. instead he has none… cmac needs to fired…. bc sakic doesnt have the fortitude i hope its a straight clean house of sakic cmac and bednar fired
