Dallas Stars falter on their six-game road trip, falling 2-1 to the Utah Mammoth and igniting questions about roster depth and defensive reliability. Is this recent slump exposing fatal flaws ahead of a tough stretch against Tampa Bay and Boston? Despite Jake Ottinger’s stellar performance, critical mistakes and lackluster offensive pressure left the Stars searching for answers, while injuries to Miro Heiskanen and lingering struggles from Thomas Harley and Nils Lundkvist highlight the team’s vulnerability.Joey Erickson spotlights Lian Bischel’s imminent return, potentially reinvigorating the blueline, and dissects the inconsistency plaguing Dallas’s middle-six. Topics include the effectiveness of Coach Glenn Goldson’s lineup shuffles, the disappointing special teams, and the need for a trade to rescue the playoff hopes.
