The Dallas Stars lost Alex Goligoski and Vernon Fiddler to free agency this offseason, both of which served as alternate captains for the team.

Cody Eakin
Cody Eakin is arguably the most underrated Dallas Star. He’s transitioned rather seamlessly into a first-line role on the team, earning himself a spot next to captain Jamie Benn.
