Dallas Stars captain Jamie Benn is out for at least four weeks due to a collapsed lung suffered during a recent game. The injury occurred after Benn took a heavy hit and was later diagnosed, forcing him to miss significant playing time. This is a major blow to the Stars, as Benn is a veteran leader and key contributor on both ends of the ice. His absence will likely lead to increased roles for younger forwards and possibly roster moves or call-ups from the AHL. The coaching staff will need to adjust line combinations and special teams units to fill the leadership and production gap. The team’s resilience and depth will be tested as they push through this crucial stretch of the season without their captain.

Who will take all of the terrible penalties?
I'd have to think that pending some sort of transaction that Hryckowian starts the season with the big club.
What's tough is that October is probs the hardest month. If they can get outof October .500+ that'd be a good start.
Knock off the drama. Just report and ditch the hyperbolic schtick.
This injury will reveal the Stars lack of depth with all the players lost this past off season. We have good depth with 3-4 lines but if anyone gets injured, it's over. I have been saying the Stars are going to struggle this year. This season will not be what us Stars have been used to in recent seasons. New coach, lack of depth, left wing questions, players who aren't physical, will all influence the season. My prediction is the Stars finish the season anywhere from 5th-9th in the West. Probably 3rd in the Central. Let's see how close I am at the end of the season.
