About this listen

Glen Gulutzan is officially the Dallas Stars’ new head coach… again. Radek Faksa is back on a much cheaper deal. And free agency? It was more of a fizzle than a frenzy. Ryan and Chris break down what Jim Nill’s quiet July 1st tells us about the team’s direction — and whether this coaching staff can take the Stars to the next level.

In this episode:

  • The pros and cons of hiring Gulutzan
  • Neil Graham's growing role
  • What re-signing Faksa signals about the bottom six
  • Colin Blackwell, Wyatt Johnston's fit, and Duchene's position
  • Who left, who stayed, and who got way overpaid
  • The impact of keeping Mikko Rantanen, losing Marchment, and missing out on Dadonov
  • Why Vegas and Florida owned July 1st

Also: a passionate defense of Lyubushkin, the long-awaited return of “acknowledge the tribal chief,” and early predictions on the Stars’ top-six pairings.
