Mike Heika, Stars beat writer for SportsDayDFW.com and The Dallas Morning News, answers questions about the team in a recent live chat. Here are some highlights:
Do you think the Stars should really test their young players to see what they've got down the stretch of this season?
Heika: Yes, I do. For one, they need to see which defenseman they should protect in the expansion draft. They can protect three defensemen - Esa Lindell and John Klingberg will be two. That means Stephen Johns and Jamie Oleksiak are battling for the right to be the third.
