North Stars with 100-Point Seasons

North Stars with 100-Point Seasons

June 12th, 2020 Admittedly, the Minnesota North Stars enjoyed their greatest success as a franchise once they moved to Dallas to become (just) the Stars.

Now the newest member of the New Jersey Devils is hoping the number is "Taylor made," for him. Taylor Hall will join a group of great players who have also donned the...
The Minnesota North Stars Franchise Four

The Minnesota North Stars Franchise Four

February 11th, 2016 The Franchise Four. The Mount Rushmore. Four players who tell the story of an organization. For criteria, I’m choosing one forward, defenceman, goaltender and a wild card from any position. Entering the NHL in 1967, the Minnesota North Stars reached the postseason 17 times, including Stanley Cup Final twice, across 26...

What Became of These Former Dallas Stars?

What Became of These Former Dallas Stars?

December 31st, 2014 At the end of each season, teams across every level of professional hockey fail to issue qualifying offers to a handful of players.

December 9th, 2010 Jim Neveau, NHL Correspondent He may not have had as noteworthy a time with the Stars as Mike Modano, but when you look at the sum of its parts, the career of Jere Lehtinen was certainly one of the best in the history of the Minnesota/Dallas franchise.
