What is going on with the Dallas Stars Power Play??



On today’s episode of Locked On Stars, Joey breaks down the Dallas Stars win over the Philadelphia Flyers despite giving up three shorthanded goals in the game. It was the first time in NHL history that a team has done so, and Joe Pavelski scored the game winner in overtime. Besides the power play issues, Wyatt Johnston, Tyler Seguin, Thomas Harley, Jason Robertson and Roope Hintz all played very well in the contest, and the Stars had their best start of the season. However, the power play issues and giving up odd-man rushes has been a theme to start the season and it came back to hurt the Stars on Saturday night. Joey gives his take on why he believes they are struggling and offers solutions during his recap of the win. On the bright side, the Stars get another win in extra time and squeak out with another two points, but the Stars are no where near at their best yet. Can we expect to see that tomorrow night, Joey takes a quick look into the Pittsburgh Penguins who are coming off two losses as the Stars and Pens meet on Tuesday night.

  1. This was all on the coaches.

    When a team starts taking away the puck at the blue line then you revert to dump, chase, and forecheck. At least your not giving break aways and odd man rushes. 🤦‍♂️

  2. If this crappy play keeps up they can trade the entire 4th line and bring up Stankhoven, Bourque, and Blumel. Those guys are tearing it up in Cedar Park.

  3. They’ve gotta be tighter defensively to stop the odd man rushes give up garbage time goals. One Philadelphia play scored two goals almost in rapid succession. I wish the Stars ⭐️ were faster coming out of the gate keeping their foot on the gas for a whole game actually blow out an opponent. I realize it’s early in the season they’ve got some things to tighten up, gotta finish against big time opposition like the Colorado Avalanche. Scott Wedgewood was good between the pipes. They’ve gotta win face offs and improve their power play.

  4. Being at the game the powerplay looked lazy and like they just expected to be able to take advantage, instead they got rolled for a poor effort.

  5. We have got to be better in controlling the puck. It seems like every game so far has featured more pucks bouncing off sticks, pucks unable to be corralled, leading to poor passes, turnovers etc. I can't recall our puck control being so scattershot game to game in many years. I don't know if we're just anxious and getting ahead of ourselves, or maybe just maybe I am seeing things…. lol

  6. Stars giving up 3 SHGs makes me think of Dak Throwing Back to Back INTs last year on plays. I remember thinking why don't they run the ball they still had Zeke and Pollard. Then after guy dropped an easy INT he managed to catch the same exact play by DP hehe. So I can't expect they are going to fix it as seems Dallas don't do those things? I'd like to see them get Logan Couture from Sharks if they retain half salary. TMac is why San Jose never Won Cup as would have 4 Forwards out on the PP giving up SHGs to Kings in 2014 when led 3 games nill. Teams are ready for that so they score more when down compared to on PP. Defense are the only people who can skate backwards or know how to man the points. Colorado had a game last year with 3 Defense on PP. Either way making History by Winnings is always nice ;). Exciting Team :).
