Jamie Benn and Tyler Seguin's decade-long pursuit of a Stanley Cup in Dallas is pretty special. Time is not slowing down, though.

big save

Robert Tiffin @tiffin.bsky.social · 17h

Wyatt Johnston is good at this hockey thing.

Robert Tiffin @tiffin.bsky.social · 17h

fourth line generates an icing, and top line comes out and Robertson does this. good player.

Justin Hryckowian evened things up a bit

Nils Lundkvist to Rantanen to Harley, the ol' 1-2-3

I can only assume Colorado fans are booing Chris MacFarland, and Mikko Rantanen just happens to be on the ice each time they do so.

only two minutes for this, I guess

Nathan MacKinnon does not appear to believe this

Like I've always said, love is the universe's most luminous powerhouse.

I'm sure they're looking at the most cost-effective models. With WHL going to Victory+, I'd think AHL would be looking into what they can do to get more eyeballs whenever FLOHockey contract is up. But that's pure speculation.

No team wants to do :30 starts, and the league doesn’t make them. Agreed it’s silly.

Robert Tiffin @tiffin.bsky.social · 19h

TheAHL.com for basic stats

Robert Tiffin @tiffin.bsky.social · 19h

Who’s gonna pay for it?

Robert Tiffin @tiffin.bsky.social · 19h

It’s a secret but yes

Texas Stars game is free on YouTube tonight. With luck, intermissions between the NHL/AHL clubs won't overlap.

Rob Manfred is sitting on a veranda somewhere, quietly writing a new entry in his More Great Extra Innings Ideas notebook.

“Playoffs: Darts?”

Everyone should have to start bunting in every at bat starting in the 16th

Robert Tiffin @tiffin.bsky.social · 1d

If I’m not mistaken, NHL Network might have done this in the past? But now it’s all FloHockey, so perhaps not.

I can think of at least one incredible NHLer who played for Odessa!

Cross Hanas grew up playing with mini sticks in the locker room of a Stars team featuring Glen Gulutzan and Jamie Benn.

Tonight, Hanas could make his Texas Stars debut in another full-circle moment. Really enjoyed hearing about his journey.
