The exercise is simple. Grade how you think every member of the Dallas Stars -- including head coach Ken Hitchcock and GM Jim Nill -- performed during the 2017-18 season.
Some notes:
-- We're including all players who appeared in more than 20 games and finished the years with the Stars.
-- We'll be releasing player grades posts from now with Marc Methot all the way until May 18 with Brett Ritchie.

Stats: 80 games played | 27 points [14 goals, 13 assists] | Plus-9
