The Dallas Stars blue line is one of the biggest question marks about the team at the moment, and not for the reasons you may think. Dallas currently has eight defensemen under contract that played consistently in the NHL last season, as well as another handful that could make the team come training camp.
With that said, they could either be the greatest group of defenders in Dallas since the Sergei Zubov era years ago, or the most disappointing group since the Stars had guys to the likes of Adam Pardy. For that reason it is imperative to look at both the strengths and weaknesses of the current Dallas Stars blue line.
