This sure looks like a loss for Dallas tonight. Team just doesn't seem to have any sort of connection to each other tonight. Struggling with basic foundation level stuff out there.

That being said nobody scams as many wins as the Stars so there's always hope..

I have zero confidence in the Leafs closing this game out, they’re outplaying the stars since the halfway point but nobody gives away points like this team

I'm open minded to Pete DeBoer related explanations but I still think that the primary issue is that 5 of the 7 defensemen who are signed to play with the Stars would genuinely struggle to keep up with the pace of play in the AHL.

drat, this Toronto Dallas game changed on its head considerably over the past three minutes.

That was the first time in about four months I’ve seen Tavares play.. what’s the word… good? Skilled? Appropriate? I don’t know, none of these things describe John Tavares this year.

That was dumb as poo poo by Nylander. Two more strides and he wouldn't have iced it and the Stars probably wouldn't have scored

He was getting closed off, don’t listen to the broadcast. If he gets cut off and the puck gets turned over at center that’s worse, and the goal was straight in from the top of the circle which should just never go

I mean, he was on the ice and he didn’t seem to think so! Granted he could have not shot at all and gone for a soft chip but then the Stars still circle back against the same group. It bugs me that Samsonov lets in a muffin and the booth immediately goes “well a skater didn’t play perfectly the play before” instead of “that goal was terrible”

You’re totally fine basing your assumptions of a team off the vibe you get of the city. It’s the same fans, the same culture. Columbus will be sleepy. New York is full of elitists. Boston and Philly are full of assholes. LA is full of people that don’t care about hockey. Tampa is surprisingly not full of retirees but instead the most insane people you’ve never thought about and would like to never meet in an alley. Jersey is full of corruption. Montreal wants to pretend they’re the most important city in Canada but are of course constantly proven wrong. Toronto wants to pretend it’s the most important city in North America but are of course constantly proven wrong.

Just base everything off of the city and you’ll hit the nail on the head 85% of the time.

Other than him, Jamie Benn is going to try and get under your skin. Beyond that...obviously I'm biased but I just don't see much to hate in Dallas. And if you just hate Dallas...well, I've wasted my breath. Edit: or...finger...energy...?

I'm convinced that the Stars did some behind the scenes fuckery in order to sign Alexander Radulov and I'll always think they're assholes for that

Plus I've been to enough Preds games over the years to interact with visiting fans of most of the other teams. Stars fans have always been the most obnoxious by far

Probably just proximity mixed with the age of the franchise. It’s farther to come to Detroit (I’d assume), but they never say poo poo up here.

lol waaaaaaaaay back when the Red Wings were our big rivals, I was getting food from one of the concession stands during the first intermission. This guy came wandering by with his three year old girl on his shoulders. She was yelling "RED WINGS SUCK! RED WINGS SUCK!" over and over at the top of her lungs

Everyone was high fiving her and telling her dad, "you're raising her right!" It was adorable :3:

I legitimately wonder if they're not really visiting so much as they just live in your area. If anything, I feel local Stars fans are way too boring and complacent here. That poo poo where they threw stuff onto the ice last playoffs wasn't good, obviously, but I was fuckin floored it even happened. The fanbase has never seemed the type to me.

OH! Just remembered. If you're watching a game that's played in Dallas and you see a dude on the glass with a giant "BANG!" sign, you can't hate him hard enough. I fuckin hate him. Trying to turn "has the money for floor seats regularly" into some sort of pseudo sports celebrity and that can go straight into the garbage imo. He used to actually bang on the glass until he almost got banned from the stadium, so now he just holds up this wimpy sign.

Sparklefuck is notorious for being a total rear end in a top hat too. I've heard so many stories about that guy cursing at children, yelling at people for going down to the glass for warm ups, and being a belligerent drunk.

There's a guy in Seattle who dresses up as Zoidberg for every game. Does not seem to be an rear end in a top hat at least.
