You’re GOATED Jim. We have faith in you and the boys. Thanks for another great season.
Played a lot of long season post season hockey the last three years. Demanding season on the injury front and the scheduling/travel (as Nill points out) . . . great season really. The goal is the Cup. The success is along the way and THIS, this season, was successful and positive still.
Jim nailed it – it was an emotional and mental mindset.
Wow. I thought the injuries were bad but damn, they didn't stand a chance…
Everybody knew it was going to be a tough year with the condensed schedule due to the Olympics.
Sign Robo stat!
I know everyone claims injuries shouldn't be an excuse but damn! It makes so much sense why the boys lost their mojo. Not one game with the full lineup all season is crazy.
Rantanen was a big mistake. Ship him out! Sign Robo > Kaprizov
As a Leafs fan, my God is it refreshing listening to a GM fully answering questions and not sounding like an idiot about what needs to happen next.
Tough year, but overall a year of growth.
Trade Lyubushkin and Steel out by receiving 2027 3rd round pick and 2029 4th round pick by having $16.4M in cap space! Sign Robo for $12M x 8 years = $96M AAV! Sign Bourque $1.4M annually with 2 or 3 years ($2.8M or $4.2M)! Add 3 or 4 more players with $3M cap space! Fill up with 3-4 players to fill in $3M and there! The deal is done set for 2026-27 season! Simple as that!
24:00 😢 mad respect to all the NHL players that sacrifice so much
Just so all of us as Stars fans! There's one saving grace tonight! The Dallas Pulse are saving Dallas sports with a chance to win the Championship Game and getting us out of mediocrity!
This entire press conference is why Jim is my favourite GM in the league. Just so down to earth and transparent.
