The free agency period can be a fascinating time for the Dallas Stars.
Whether it’s the summer of 2017 when the Stars made a massive splash and brought on talent like Ben Bishop, Marc Methot, and Alexander Radulov, or the summer of 2016 when they were rather passive in their free agent acquisitions while also parting ways with a lot of talent, there’s never any telling where they might go.
Take the summer of 2018 for example. After missing the playoffs for a second consecutive season and hiring on yet another new coach, the Stars approached July 1 with a seemingly extensive list of needs.
