Dallas Stars hockey is back, and Ryan, Chris, and James reunite to preview what could be a fascinating 2026-27 season in Dallas.The guys start with the Stars’ 2-1 preseason win over the St. Louis Blues and discuss what — if anything — can actually be learned from preseason hockey. They break down Arttu Hyry’s roster push, Emil Hemming’s development, Remi Poirier’s future, Dallas’ salary-cap crunch, and some of the biggest decisions facing the Stars before opening night.Then the conversation turns to the bigger question: what has to change for Dallas to finally break through?Glen Gulutzan is making adjustments to the Stars’ transition game and five-on-five offense, and the guys discuss whether those changes can address one of Dallas’ biggest weaknesses from last season. They also work through NHL.com’s 2026-27 Dallas Stars season preview, including the team’s Stanley Cup window, Tyler Seguin’s health, Roope Hintz, Thomas Harley, Jake Oettinger, Joel Kiviranta’s return and what the Stars’ lineup could look like when the season begins.Finally, the Who Cares segment asks everyone to reveal their Top 3 petty things that irrationally annoy them — featuring slow drivers, grocery-store traffic jams, USB cables, wet countertops and a surprisingly passionate hatred of old towels.The 2026-27 season is almost here.

Could the NHL's next expansion team be coming to Texas? Ryan, Chris, and James debate Austin vs. Houston as a potential home for another NHL franchise and what a second Texas team could mean for the Dallas Stars, including a potential new rivalry and the future of the Texas Stars in Cedar Park. Then it's time for a deep dive into the Dallas blue line. Is the Stars defense really a weakness? The guys discuss Miro Heiskanen's importance to the roster, Thomas Harley's bounce-back potential, Nils Lundqvist's development, Liam Bichsel, Tyler Myers, and how they would construct the defensive pairings. Plus, where does Jake Oettinger actually rank among NHL goaltenders? After posting the lowest save percentage of his NHL career, does Dallas need more from Otter — and can the Stars afford to expose him more while searching for additional offense? The guys also hit the latest Plano arena/AAC developments before bringing back Who Cares, where they rank their favorite shades of red and somehow get into a heated argument over whether maroon is actually red.
