Ask Stars fans who their favorite players have been from the past several seasons and you’re likely to get some common answers: Jamie Benn and Tyler Seguin are popular picks, as well as John Klingberg and Antoine Roussel. But one name that might pop up more often than you would expect is Vernon Fiddler, who announced his retirement yesterday.
Fiddler only played 5 of his 14 NHL seasons with Dallas, but he formed a special bond with the team and its fans over that time. He was always a reliable player on the ice and shone just as bright off it.
