That 2014-15 all gas no breaks team was hella fun to watch. Like holy crap did they score goals. I'd be curious if someone wants to do my research for me how close that team and this team are offensively.This has been the most enjoyable Stars hockey that I have witnessed in a long, long time. I'd probably have to go all the way back to the Hatcher, Lehtinen, Modano, Zubov and Nieuwendyk era tbh. I hope the good times continue to roll in the playoffs.

The 2008 series against San Jose. I was in the building for 3OT and it was glorious. That team wasn't nearly as talented but I do have fond memories. Overall though I agree. This arguably the most fun I've had watching a Stars team. What's crazy is I'd argue that next year's team should be better assuming Harley, Lunkqvist, Bourque, and Stankoven make the starting 18 next season.
was it fun?? every time they shot off to a three goal lead they wound up losing 5-3. high event, low hardware teams.That 2014-15 all gas no breaks team was hella fun to watch.

It was fun after the low event, grinding teams before it. Bad and dull are a horrible combination to watch so yeah, I have fond memories of those first 3 Lindy years. He was such a change of pace from Hickcock etc.was it fun?? every time they shot off to a three goal lead they wound up losing 5-3. high event, low hardware teams.
i suppose that could be better than low event low hardware, but i wouldn’t call it fun.
When Roope was a prospect, I never could have imagined that he would end up being as good as he is. The guy is a PPG top line center who should arguably be a Selke finalist on a yearly basis. What a player.
After coming off the bankruptcy years, yes. Yes, it was tons of fun.was it fun?? every time they shot off to a three goal lead they wound up losing 5-3. high event, low hardware teams.

I was always nervous watching that team.was it fun?? every time they shot off to a three goal lead they wound up losing 5-3. high event, low hardware teams.

How could it not be fun? I could look up your 3 goal hypothesis, but I doubt your memory bank has it quite right. They did have many losses giving up 5+ goals, however. I only saw once where they even lost 3 in a row, but it was a quick check.was it fun?? every time they shot off to a three goal lead they wound up losing 5-3. high event, low hardware teams.

Yes, I remember those feelings as well. But, always sitting on the edge of your seat is probably more fun than constant 7-1 blowouts. Although, these last five games (save the Vegas shootout win) have been fun to see winning by a big score. But, compared to the sitting on the edge of your seat while Hitch or Bones was trying to hold on to a 2-1 lead in the third is not fun at all.oh, the offense was fun. i just remember never feeling comfortable with a lead. nerve-racking!
Entire 3rd period turtles were f***in terrible to watch, the other team tying it up was almost inevitableYes, I remember those feelings as well.
