2023 Stanley Cup Roundtable

Stargazing: A Dallas Stars Puckcast | Defending Big D

Hockey fans everywhere are counting the minutes until the 2023 Stanley Cup playoffs begin. So why not chain them together and make them fight for supremacy?

Wes Lawrence, co-host of Defending Big D's own Stargazing Puckcast, joined fellow commentators from six of our sibling sites to chew the fat and spit hot fire:

• Stanley Cup Of Chowder, for all things Boston Bruins,
• Anaheim Calling, a favorite pond for Ducks fans,
• Jewels From The Crown, serving the Los Angeles Kings,
• The Cannon, sounding off for the Columbus Blue Jackets,
• Davy Jones' Locker Room, where Seattle Kraken fans lurk,
• and Lighthouse Hockey, a beacon for the New York Islanders.

This expert panel went series by series in anticipation of the playoffs action. Here's what they talked about:

• Can anyone stop the Bruins?
• How much Martin Jones does anyone really need?
• Does Connor McDavid stay in God Mode?
• Can the Colorado Avalanche get healthy?
• How do the Stars deal with actual expectations?
• And much, much more.

Buckle up, it's going to be a heckuva ride! (Notice: Not responsible for accidents, nausea, coma, death, or any other physical or psychological injuries.) And, as always, our end is brought to you by our sponsor, Greening Law, P.C.
