Yeah their 2017 draft was arguably the best of the salary cap era. They don't need to rebuild as they have prime aged stars at all key positions, but they'd benefit from dumping some aging vets and going youth movement. Honestly, Dallas consistently perform. Just keep doing what they're doing I say.

The Stars have literally never rebuilt or stopped trying at any time the entire duration of their existence in Dallas. They have always tried to make the playoffs, even in the years they were bankrupt. They have never sold at a trade deadline. The highest they've ever finished in the draft order (pre lottery results) is 8th.

They do this because the ownership (correctly) believes that nobody would come watch the team if they were actively tanking. It's not an option, even if the idea of rebuilding a 108 point team wasn't completely insane.

I don't think it's viable for them to tank, FWIW.
Robo and Heiskanen are for sure legit.

Good as in "morally acceptable" or good as in "successful?" Because no to the former, yes to the latter. The Cowboys won a bunch of Superbowls in the 90s.

The one year Theodore made the playoffs with the Avs the Stars poo poo the bed that year too to give him his final series win. Never was a starter past the 2nd round, heh.

He was alright at the Avs. I think eventually it was just decided that Boods was cheaper and not significantly worse.

this is the easiest to figure out team in the league: it has two good defensemen and both of them are anchored by their partners, with a goalie that seems to have started playing worse right about the time he got fell on game 6 round 1
