Travis, I was bummed when they traded Langenbrunner too. He was always a favorite of mine.

My fandom was dented when they traded Langenbrunner to the Devils, but I’m solidly back on board now.

Go Jessica! Fantastic post! I love the Stars and I’m totally not a sports fan (shocker, I know).

GREAT JOB!

I can not begin to tell you how upset I was to go to a sports bar (term used loosely) last night and see 3 people wearing Red Wings sweaters and I was the only one wearing my Stars sweater. To all the people that want to keep saying, “I quit watching when they had the strike”, I’ve just got to say “Get over it”. Every sport has had a strike in most of our lifetimes, and for the fans it sucked. BUT if you’re a fan of hockey, it doesn’t matter.
The Stars are doing amazingly well with a team that wasn’t expected to get out of the 1st round. Key injuries have meant that rookies are getting valuable ice time that is going to pay dividends in the next couple of seasons. If it doesn’t happen this year, don’t lose faith….it will.

Bah, I spelled your name wrong Jenn. Sorry about that.

Jen…oh I remember Morrow’s rookie days too. He was the most adorable little snack of a player, but surprised me when he stepped out onto the ice. Hell, he had the cojones to go after Guy’s daughter as a rookie–that’s FEARLESS! I was proud of him for not getting goaded into fights last series even though you KNOW he wanted to beat the crap out of somebody.

I miss Hullie on the ice too. He was my BOY, and I’m glad he’s back with the Stars off the ice. I also like seeing Ludwig on the air now that he’s no longer playing, even if he does look almost exactly like my father-in-law. CREEPY.

YES! Yes to all of it.

I miss Hatcher and Hull. I miss Eddie shoving people out of the crease.

BUT, I remember when Morrow was a rookie. Instant hockey crush. He was tough and didn’t take anything from anyone. Now that he is captain? Still doesn’t. He just tempers a bit when he HAS to.

This team is good. They are coming together unlike any year I have seen since the ‘99 win.

It makes me happy. It makes my heart flutter. It makes my blood pressure raise. I just flat out makes me HAPPY!

Great post!
