Weirdly , I was barely disappointed after this one . Stars didn’t deserve to win the series . I don’t even know what they could do to beat them next year . We need a brayden point .
I don't think Benn will be that highly regarded.Not upset or mad, this run was magical.I was too young to remember or care enough about Dallas back in 1999/2000, so this was the first SCF run i’ve been apart of. All I ever known was playoff disappointments up until now ... really i only started watching and appreciating the game and the Stars in 2003.
shit just hurts right now knowing we may have to wait another 20 years or more to ever reach the finals again, but what a run. So many great memories have come from this run ...
Proud of what the team accomplished, forcing a game 6 against an elite team, being down so many key players but still managing to bring it to 6. Kuddos to the boys.
also for those who ever questioned Benn’s captaincy ... i hope y’all will shut up now. He will go down one of the greatest Stars captain/player in history.
As soon as we eliminated Vegas I told myself not to forget how good it felt and to try and enjoy the SCF.Man this sucks still
It does but being completely honest I think last year bothered me more.Man this sucks still

I disagree with this completely. If this is the peak of what Benn brought Dallas he is going be regarded as the Captain that disappeared in the Cup final when his team needed him most and didn’t bring home the ultimate prize. And if his regular season production continues at its current pace it will almost completely tarnish the good years he had with us. Ultimately, in the end all that matters is if you can bring home the Cup. He still won’t hold a candle to guys that were part of ‘99 cup like Modano, Zubov, Belfour, Lehtinen, etc.
Benn has some good moments this playoff, but he hasn’t always great. 19 pts in 27 games is okay. We needed more out of him and were lucky we were getting scoring from other places (JFK) to have advanced as far as we did. I doubt he’s going to live up to the expectations of his contract for the rest of its duration. But, one thing that’s for sure is that this loss stings. If you watched that interview yesterday you can see the disappointment. The only thing we can hope for is that coming so close rejuvenates him (and Seguin) and we can get a couple more good years out off them and hopefully a Cup.
It does but being completely honest I think last year bothered me more.
We got out played the majority of this series and it felt like the loss was inevitable here.
The St. Louis game 7 was definitely a game Bishop kept us in, but I still feel we were jobbed on the bodyslam to Zuccarello.
Idk how we got 5 periods and they didn't get 1 penalty. Especially the body slam on a sure goal. But that series felt like it was somewhat stolen from us by refs choosing to ignore infractions by 1 team even though St. Louis was skating circles around us all of game 7.
This it just never really felt the same.
Idk if it's because of the pause or time of year or that I didn't expect them to win the series from game 1 or what
Will certainly be awkward if Blake Coleman ever plays for the Stars
Ehh who cares happens every year at every level.Don't think that was Coleman but someone in the background.
