Wings’ Jordin Tootoo destroys Philip Larsen (VIDEO)
When Ken Holland signed Jordin Tootoo this offseason, he had one role in mind for him – nastiness.
Wednesday night in front of a packed Joe Louis Arena crowd, Holland and the Wings got what they paid for. Midway through the first period, after Tootoo had already dropped the gloves with the Stars’ Eric Nystrom, Tootoo lined up Philip Larsen and absolutely dotted him.
And I’d...
Stars-Red Wings Preview
Like their next opponent, the Dallas Stars have endured a lackluster start to this season. The Stars, though, were the better team in last week's visit to Detroit.

Blue Jackets 2, Stars 1
COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Vinny Prospal's goal early in the third period Monday sent the Blue Jackets to a 2-1 victory over the Dallas Stars, snapping Columbus' four-game losing streak. At 1:22 of the third, Prospal buried an odd-angle shot through a screen set by Blue Jackets center Ryan Johansen. Given his lack of reaction, it didn't appear that Stars goaltender Kari Lehtonen...
2013 Preview: The Defensemen
Today’s post on the Stars is over the defensive side of the ice for the team. Last season, Dallas was a mediocre (maybe even a poor) team defensively. Missed assignments were abundant and any team with some speedy forwards gave Dallas a lot of trouble. Their defensive numbers would have been much worse if not for the stellar play of Kari Lehtonen and at times, Richard Bachman....

Grossman shipped off for draft picks
The Stars made their first big move of the trade season this year by sending off enormously underperforming defenseman Nick Grossman to the Philadelphia Flyers forwhat's being reported as a 2nd round pick in 2012 and a 3rd round pick in 2013 (which originally belonged to the Minnesota Wild).
The 2nd rounder (which originally belonged to the LA Kings) could prove to be a very...
