NHL free agency is underway for the 2023 offseason and the Dallas Stars are quite active. They added some new forwards in Matt Duchene, Craig Smith and Sam Steel. Today, Dane breaks down each player’s new contract and analyzes how their skillset would mix in the Dallas Stars roster. With every new addition comes the departure of beloved fan favorites. Max Domi, Luke Glendening and Joel Kiviranta will not be coming back to join the team. Even with a busy first day, it doesn’t seem like the Stars are done making moves just yet. What else will Jim Nill and friends throw our way?

If it works, it works, but I am struggling to find my optimism
Dane Lewis! Do you only cover the Stars?
Kiviranta isn't signed yet. Why are we saying goodbye to him? Klingberg in Toronto is going to be an interesting experiment. I think Craig Smith will be valuable in the leadership role left by Glenny, and will contribute about the same as he has elsewhere. He is not good on the dot, however, but we are strong enough in that department. Happy to see Hanley get another 2 years. He is money.
Guys like Smith and Steel get sent to the AHL all the time.
Locked on stars, I spent a long time hating douchene for his time at wild and especially preds. How do we welcome this type of player?
Wait did we lose Luke?
Wait our fourth line was among the best… we’re losing Luke and Joel??? How’re we gunna say the leaderships knows what their doing??? Miller for a forgettable trade round in ‘25??? Who are we
Trashhhhh
Quite a surprise FA day, but I also felt we were a large internal fulfilment, but again I am not a NHL GM.
Dammit with the ads
I don´t see Sam Steel as a upgrade to Joel Kiviranta. Not at all.
Matt Duchene is a great signing for the price ❤
What sucks is this proves that stankoven and bourque will start in ahl…. Unless you’re moving benn and or March to 4th line.
Robo hintz pavs
Duchene seguin stankoven
Benn johnston dads
March faksa dellandrea
Smith and steel as scratch.
Dude.. our offense is deep. Time to make some moves on the defensive side now
