	I agree with the first part Recommended on Nov 30, 2016, 1:41pm EST
	Thanks David, this pretty much sums up everything I was going to say Commented on It’s Much More Than Goaltending Hurting Dallas This Year on Nov 30, 2016, 1:42am EST

	Against the Blues, sure, but they were pretty fantastic the rest of the year Commented on It’s Much More Than Goaltending Hurting Dallas This Year on Nov 29, 2016, 6:26pm EST - 1 reply
	I don't believe this is correct. Recommended on Nov 29, 2016, 6:21pm EST
	Wait, we're bashing the Hudler signing now? Recommended on Nov 29, 2016, 6:19pm EST
	I'll give it five more games until I start criticizing Honka like the rest of Dallas' defense Recommended on Nov 29, 2016, 1:54pm EST
	Dallas' overall puck possession relied on Goligoski and Demers last season so much more than everyone realized Commented on It’s Much More Than Goaltending Hurting Dallas This Year on Nov 29, 2016, 1:53pm EST - 1 reply

	Yep, 100% this Commented on Preview: Dallas Stars @ St. Louis Blues (7:00pm CST) on Nov 28, 2016, 2:56pm EST
	Not that surprising though Recommended on Nov 28, 2016, 2:56pm EST

	The defense is full of problems right now, but Jordie is pretty much at the bottom of the problems list Commented on Stephen Johns Assigned To AHL on Nov 25, 2016, 7:24pm EST - 1 reply
	Not sure if you know this or not, but right now Jordie has the best possession numbers of all Stars defensemen Commented on Stephen Johns Assigned To AHL on Nov 25, 2016, 3:35pm EST - 2 replies
