This makes no sense.
A paper tiger would require the team to be amazing on paper. Is Dallas amazing on paper? I look at that roster and I just don't see a paper tiger. Are Pavelski or Johnston or Duchene strong names on paper? Do they sound like great players in comparison to, what, Kucherov, Stamkos, Point, Hedman, what have you?
Is Jason Robertson a star player the way Kucherov, Matthews, McDavid, or Pastrnak is a star player? Is that an impressive name?
Dallas Stars are pretty much the opposite of a paper tiger, if you ask me. On paper, none of their positions are particularly impressive name-wise. Heiskanen is probably the best one, but most people would still say that he's not on the level of a Makar or a Hughes.
