As I sat down to do some research on the Dallas Stars, I did so with the full intention of coming up with reasons why they will make a long run in this year’s National Hockey League playoffs. I’ve watched some of their games recently and have slowly been convincing myself that this team is a dark horse that can make some noise this spring.
Look, we all want to be that person that makes the bold prediction to our friends or followers that Team X, even though it doesn’t look that great, is going to go surprise everyone and “run the table” as they say.
