It’s Monday, July 2, 2018, and the Dallas Stars have yet to make a sizable move. That may sound a little unusual and worrisome, but it’s the truth.
The Stars spent the first day of free agency in a different way than most expected to. Stars media, analysts, and fans entered the period with a concrete plan of what Dallas needed to do, and it looked something like this.
- Get a solid backup goaltender that can take the starting role when necessary
- Add forward depth to serve on the second line and provide a scoring punch
That was basically it.
