Rumor Mill

Third Jersey Disasters

by Damien Franco on November 19, 2008

Okay, so the rumor mill was right after all.

I had seen a couple of mock ups of the Dallas Stars third jersey throughout the week, but really didn’t put too much stock into them. 

Why?

Because they didn’t even look like freakin’ third jerseys!

The crappy thing is, they were right.

Here’s the third jersey for the Dallas Stars.

Now, I may only be a photographer living in West Texas, not a fashion designer, but I think I could have come up with anything much more creative than this in an hour sitting at a coffee shop drawing on napkins with broken crayons!

I’m just saying…

Is anyone really going to go pony up extra cash for this jersey?

A Modano Line We Could All Live With

by Damien Franco on September 20, 2008

Mike Modano looks like he might be playing along side Brad Richards and Sean Avery this season as the second forward line-up.  Seems that Dave Tippett will be trying out this trio during the preseason match ups.  Sounds great to me. 

If this line is able to mesh well together the Dallas Stars will have a great starting six. 

Let’s face it.  Mo’ is getting a little long in the tooth as far as hockey players go, but he still has mad skills.  He needs someone like Avery to create some room on the ice and free up Modano to skate with that blazing speed of his.  With Brad Richards at the helm of this combination we should see some flashy skating, brilliant passing, and some knock down grit.

I’m stoked.
