NHL Rumors
NHL Rumors: Oilers, Avs, Zuccarello, Trouba, More
In today's NHL rumor rundown, one media scribe takes a look at the recent d-man buyouts and wonders what that means for the Edmonton Oilers? In other news, the Dallas Stars and Mats Zuccarello are working on something and the Colorado Avalanche have a few items to deal with. Finally, a number of teams are interested in Jacob Trouba. The Oilers Set to Move a Defenseman? Jonathan Willis took a good long look at the buyouts that happened on Saturday (Dion Phaneuf and Andrew MacDonald) and then the trades for d-men that have taken place in the last few days and asked, "Will Edmonton be looking for that kind of player?" LOS ANGELES, CA - MARCH 1: Dion Phaneuf #3 of the Los Angeles Kings (Photo by Juan Ocampo/NHLI via Getty Images) Admitting that there are ways both players could help the Oilers, Willis says no and suggests instead, the Oilers are primed to move a defenseman in the trade market to free up space to add a forward. Only then might the team look at aging players...
Free Agents
Roman Polak’s Future with the Stars
It was only a year ago that Roman Polak received a nomination for the Bill Masterton Memorial Trophy after recovering from a broken leg to have one of the stronger seasons in his career. However, after carrying that momentum through his debut season with the Dallas Stars, Polak’s future is once again in question. There is no denying he was a valuable asset to the Stars’ back end after Marc Methot and Stephen Johns sustained season-ending injuries, but whether the club will have room for him moving forward is still to be determined. Regardless, credit is owed to Polak for his hard-nosed style of play that rarely showed up on the scoresheet. Overall & Even Strength Impact Even at his best, Polak is never going to log minutes the way Esa Lindell and John Klingberg do. Still, his 19:10 average time on ice in 2018-19 was fourth-most among Stars defensemen and the most in his career since 2014-15. Few could have predicted Polak would take on such responsibility when he was...

NHL Coaching
Dallas Stars' Assistant Coaches Attracting Attention
Even though the Dallas Stars’ playoff run ended early, head coach Jim Montgomery deserves every bit of praise he has received since the team’s late-season surge. The first-year NHL coach was the right blend of new and old school given the mix of youth and veterans on the roster. What allowed Montgomery to grow, though, was the support of the trio that flanked him behind the bench. Assistant coaches Todd Nelson, Rick Bowness and Stu Barnes played pivotal roles in Dallas this season and deserve the recognition they're receiving from other NHL teams. Todd Nelson After initially being rumored as a candidate to take over as the Stars’ head coach, Nelson was hired as an assistant shortly after Montgomery took the helm. His prior experience as an NHL bench boss was brief—serving as the interim in Edmonton in 2014-15, with a 17-22-7 record—but his success at the AHL level garnered attention from the Stars. Nelson’s 133-78-17 record in Grand Rapids from 2015 to 2018,...Stars Archives
