Why I love the Dallas Stars: Philippe Boucher

As y’all may have surmised, Philippe Boucher is my favorite player. In all the league. For a while, I would say that he’s my favorite Star and Joe Nieuwendyk is my favorite player. But now that Nieuwy has retired, Bouche is my favorite player in all the league. And don’t tell [...]

Lehtinen and Richards on BaD Radio.

The Ticket’s Bob and Dan and Donovan were in Frisco at training camp on Thursday afternoon and interviewed Jere Lehtinen and Brad Richards.
They were both very good interviews. You can listen to them over on Andrew’s Dallas Stars Page.
They’re fun. Bob and Dan were cracking Brad Richards up.

I feel a little better.

I watched these two clips of Brett Hull on TSN.com.
The first one is a straight interview where Hullie says some interesting things. This article summarizes it pretty well.

Why I love the Dallas Stars: Brenden Morrow

I remember when Brenden Morrow came up in 1999-2000. I immediately liked him. He was such an earnest kid and he worked hard and everybody raved about his leadership potential. Even then.

Listening to the Blues’ radio broadcasters calling him a turtler [...]

Why I love the Dallas Stars: Sergei Zubov

I think Sergei Zubov is pretty hot. I love his over-the-shoulder glance. And when he laughs out loud and his dimples appear.  And when he annoys the rookies during practice, just for fun.  You’re going to think this is weird, but the back of his neck is really nice. 
I just love watching him play. He’s [...]

Why I love the Dallas Stars: Mike Modano

I think I’ve been pretty clear how I feel about Mike Modano.
This past season he was again asked to think of the team before himself and again he did. He was moved to the checking line. News articles tried to make him say he didn’t like it, but he didn’t. He understands his role and [...]

See America first.

his is a view from the Beartooth Highway that runs from Red Lodge, Montana, to the Northeast Entrance of Yellowstone N.P.  I highly recommend it.
I’ll be back to my real life this weekend, so I’ll finally be diving back into hockey.  I’m so excited that training camp is starting.  And congratulations to the Stars’ prospects, [...]
