Keep Your Heads Up Stars Fans ( Part 1 )
Posted on 20 Aug 2010 by Travis Currie.
What should we be looking forward to this upcoming season ? Stanley Cup ? Last place overall ? Somewhere in between ? Most likely somewhere in between but I'll get to that in part 2. For now though, the sale of the team is reportedly about to go through and that is nothing but great news. That is probably the best news we've had in a long time. No, it IS the best news we've had in a long...

It’s Gonna Be A Strange Season
Posted on 7 Aug 2010 by Travis Currie.
The signing is now official. Mike Modano is a Detroit Red Wing. I think it took me about 2 minutes to complete that sentence. He signed a 1 year deal worth $1.25 million with a $500k signing bonus. With Marty Turco signing on with Chicago earlier in the week, us Stars fans will have a total of 8 games where we may need to blink twice to make sure we're seeing things clearly. It's almost as i...

Mike Modano to Sign With the Red Wings in the coming week
Posted on 1 Aug 2010 by Travis Currie.
The title is not a prediction. Nor is it a nightmare though that's what it seems like. It's the very near future, and it's real. No I don't own a Delorean. I didn't travel one week ahead to find this out. But quite possibly the next best thing. I have it from a source very close to the team and Mike Modano that he will announce it in the next week or so when he returns from his trip to Scotl...

There Goes My Hero
Posted on 3 Jul 2010 by Travis Currie.
What exactly is a hero ? The dictionary defines it as a person, typically a man, who is admired for their courage, outstanding achievements, or noble qualities. A hero can swoop in and save the day in one swift action, or define himself by displaying many great qualities and heroic moments over a long period of time. The career of a professional athlete goes by in a flash. You attach you...

The Dallas Stars dipped into the free agent pool ( I use that term loosely ) yesterday adding forward Adam Burish to a 2 year contact worth $2.3 million and goaltender Andrew Raycroft to a 2 year deal aswell worth $1.3 million.

Welcome to the Green,Gold and Black, Jack
Posted on 27 Jun 2010 by Travis Currie.
Most, including myself, were having visions of Derek Forbort, Jeff Skinner, Austin Watson, and a few other skaters dancing in our heads as possible Dallas Star draftees. Then, after the first 10 picks were made, nobody could believe that not just one of them but both Cam Fowler and Brandon Gormley were still on the board. Okay, here we go. With the 11th pick overall in the 2010 NHL Dra...
