Bringing Nill into the fold was the best thing that could have happened to the Stars. The future looks bright.

whos next?

Final two left are Canes and Blues.

Adam, what is your opinion of John Klingberg. I know injuries have slowed his development, but he seemed to make a very positive impression at camp this year and in the game against the Blues. He will play at Frolunda this year and they have targeted him as a 1st pairing offensive defenseman.

If you want to keep whoring yourself out for hits, try doing top 10 players lists (playmakers, powerforwards, shutdown d...)

Don't know too much about him other than he's really fast and really aggressive in the offensive zone.

I'm guessing you saw the post on Klinberg on the dallasnews site yesterday? From that article I got the sense that he may not quite be top pair. A late round gem for sure, but I'm guessing a 3-4, 2nd pp guy.

Nice blog Adam, nice to see an article from an outsiders point of view.

I did see the article plus other comments made at the practice sessions. I meant 1st pairing this year at Frolunda and I agree his ceiling is 2nd pairing puck mover for Stars. I was curious because Adam had not included him in his prospects.

I would have went

Nichuskin
Dillon (49 gp )
Oleksiak
Chiasson
Ritchie
Faksa
Campbell
Nemeth
Richardinson
Klingberg

Nichuskin is a beast
Klingberg has really impressed
Faksa didn't have a good year, but I've been really impressed with his camp and preseason so far

I'm with you, still 2nd pair would be nice for a late round pick. Shame we don't have Zubie coaching him.

Really excited about Nichuskin; and Dillon was a beast last year.
I like some of our other prospects but really it's Nichuskin, the Big Rig, and the others.

I'm excited for Ritchie and Chiasson as well to big powerforwards to go with nich and benn. Super excited for the the few years

I have a second hand story about Scott Glennie dropping $7000 at a Boston pizza with his buddies in Winnipeg.

Desrosiers could very well be the steal of the draft for the Stars. He was the best goalie prospect of this class and he has that winner attitude. I would have taken him over Fuccale, Comrie and Jarry (who might be the most overrated of this class).

The kid is fantastic 5-holes and has great mobility. Add to that is great lateral movements and you have a very talented goalie prospect.
