The Dallas Stars season is officially over. The Stars took a beating at the hands of the Vegas Golden Knights in game 6 of the western conference final. The team came out flat and could not match the VGK’s intensity early on, and were unable to muster a comeback. Today Dane discusses the weakness that were exposed in this series as well as how Stars fans should remember this 2022-2023 season.

@dane Lewis yeah, your captain is going to provide a spark I believe he was
2 on the +/so do you still feel good about your historic come back? you still feel good about a game 7 oh yeah, that’s right he lost game 6 6-0 what happened I thought Jamie Benn was a 30 goal scorer. I thought he was going to provide a spark for you? And I hate to tell you, but I don’t know if you’ve looked at the history of Peter DeBoer’s systems and records after the first season of where he coaches after the first season, it all goes downhill from there . Oh, and I thought Oettinger was becoming the old Ottinger of last year.They had found a winning lineup without Benn and even though it would have been a bitter pill, DeBoer should’ve kept him out of the lineup for the series and kept Olofsson in. Sad to see it end this way but oh well, the ride has been fun, better luck next season.
Love the pod man, don’t know how it isn’t more popular.
What a ride it’s been man, a gut punch of an ending but I’m proud of the squad, the future is bright. LETS GO STARS !!
I completely agree with the defense take. It seems to need a game or two of recharge before its back to being useable, not good for playoffs.
Hello from Vegas, I really enjoyed your pod cast throughout the games against the knights. You do a great job with your analysis. Dallas is a great team, and I am sure they will be back next year, fighting for the Cup!
It's been great watching ur channel all season I'm convinced we're gonna get the cup soon
Benn did t run away this time?
Said it since game 1. Soft ass Stars team. No heart. No grit. No testicular fortitude. Refuse to hit. Pure skill. They better go out and get some players with those qualities to back up all the skilled players. Benn was a huge disappointment. Didn't stand up for Pavs against the wild. Would not hit. Did not lead. He's a power forward playing with 0 power. Lindell refused to hit. Hankapaa also. "Big bruising defensemen..?" Where was the bruising? They were a joke. Lindell used to hit. He was our worst defenseman all playoffs. He should be our best shutdown guy who can hit.
thx you for ur great reporting all year long, i've watched every single game(every shift) including season n playoff games, its always tough when it comes to an end, and this year is even harder since i felt like we had a more than legitimate chance to win the cup, Miro is a terrific defensemen the way he takes charge of games, his personality, his maturity and his will to become a champion, it makes me convinced he will see his days in the sun someday for now its been a pleasure watching ur videos on the regular, have a great off season 🙂
They just looked like they ran out of gas.
From an outsider, it seems that your team has the wrong guy as its captain…
The silver lining was conference finals… not forcing game 6. Yer waaaaayyyy overselling their winning 4 and 5. Vegas didnt look desperate at any time. Ffs they came out loose as shit and basically sais :ok… enuff fckn around". Stop w the glass is MORE than half full. They looked ugly… Benn doesnt deserve the Captaincy… if they really had the momentum and blood was in the water, thwy shoulda had Vegas on their heels. Instead, they sorta laughed off the 2 wins Dallas got back and bitch slapped em.
Thanks again for the content. Great year…. 👍
Hockey depression is real. Good season but what an absolute diarrhea bowl of a game that was.
best part is POS benn heads for the golf course…
What Star fans are going to eventually realize is that it’s all downhill from here with DeBORE as your coach. That guy peaks season 1 for every team he coaches. He is by far the most overrated coach in the NHL and all VGK fans are thrilled he’s not on our team anymore, we liked Gallant so much better and now Cassidy of course. DeBORE will ruin your organization.
Decent squad but what a pathetic fanbase!! That place was empty by the end, the bandwagoners left! Classless just like your “captain”. Maybe if your fanbase wasn’t racist toward Kraken fans you don’t get this karma! Woo Hoo!!
Respect from a Vegas fan. You guys are a great team. You’ll be back
Stars could have won the series if Benn got a 4 game suspension.
As soon as Jamie benn came back We went to a downfall
No forecheck. No energy. When they did that in game seven with Kraken they were the Vegas Knights.
Should have left benn out
Benn
…. strip the C
It's been a great season, it's sad how Game 6 turned out — Dallas looked as you said, empty in the tank — they looked sleepy and at halfspeed and lost — just can't win games in that state. But, it is what it is and can't wait till next year. I'll get to see the Stars play against Arizona in a pre-season game in Cedar Park this Sept so me and my family are excited for that! I've enjoyed being a new subscriber to the podcast, good job Dane!
Great job Dane! I didn't discover your pod until around March but have been a dedicated listener since.
The core of this Dallas team is essentially unchanged for the last two to three seasons. It doesn't have what it takes. Time to move on from this core.
What went wrong ? 1) you jumped on and off the bandwagon 2) look at the season stats +- and look at the playoff stats. Huge HUGE differential. Even 4 look human. Suter, atrocious at best. Lindell must be injured because he was pathetic. Look at seguin n Marchment disappearance. Their OT record was also a factor all playoffs. Can I ask why was Colin Miller benched? He played the WHOLE season. You can’t tell me he was worse than 20, 23, !!!!
Why do you keep talking about the Dallas Stars? The analyst never talk about the Vegas Knights at all even at ESPN. When will they be taken seriously as a good team!!!
Dallas Stars are Losers!!! Accept it. Period.
Disappointing is being nice. It's more like completely embarrassed.
The "Dump Oettinger" contingent got a lot of ammunition in Game 6. I'm not there yet, but I took a giant step toward it.
The rest of the team no-showed as well. A complete and total embarrassment; one of the worst I've seen in 30+ years of watching sports.
I love Texas but a VGK fan. Hang in their, you should be proud !!!
Stars should have never been there.
"The number one reason people fail in life is because they listen to their friends, family, and neighbors." —Napoleon Hill
VGK fans here through and through but gotta give it to Dallas Star, you guys gave us VGK fans heart attacks and kept us on our toes. Trash talking aside, you guys are an Awesome team and played with a heart; and I like Pete Deboer. Im sure you guys will be back stronger than ever next season!
