This week in Stars talk
The shows spent the week on Jake Oettinger's strong early season, with one segment crediting a technique adjustment he picked up at the Olympics. There's been talk about a proposed trade pairing that would send a defenseman to Dallas, though there are cap concerns about the deal. Off the ice, the shows discussed public funding controversy around the Stars' new arena in Plano.
