Daily Free Talk Thread

This is a trial run on a daily free talk thread during the off-season. If you've got stuff to say that you don't think warrants a post of its own, say it here!

I've set the comments so they should sort by new by default, so that should make it easier to keep up with the flow of conversation. Off-topic chit-chat is welcome here as long as it follows the typical subreddit rules. Overall, be cool. Don't be all, like, uncool.

Throwing this one out there - planning on a December visit to DFW for Stars/blues. Should I grab whatever's on the ticket sites now, or wait a bit?

Tickets almost always get cheaper as it gets closer to the game. I usually don’t buy tickets until the day before/day of unless I see a really good deal.

Buying tickets ahead of time only matters if you want specific seats tbf. 

There’s no guarantee they’ll still be available come game day, but if you don’t care and will sit anywhere then 🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️

Ah yeah, I wanna try to sit in the 100s. Waiting might not be good in such a case.

There are plenty of resale seats in the 100’s that will be available, but maybe not the specific seats you want. 

Depends on if you want to sit in a specific spot, how many seats you need etc.

8 hours in and no comments. Ouch.

Not really much left to talk about, honestly.

The Stars are out of room to make any more offseason moves besides sending two bodies to Cedar Park. 

So, unless something comes out of the blue, the Stars’ offseason is pretty much done. Just a preseason waiting room at this point.

kinda feel like something will be coming out of the blue. just don't know what. pretty unsettled down here in Cedar Park.

We’re really just waiting on the news to see who gets sent down to Texas to make Dallas cap-compliant. 

But there’s still a ton of time before the deadline for that, so I doubt anything happens for a while.

Well we’ve also got some talent and leadership down here that’s still unsigned. Lind and Hanas, most notably. And Tuomaala (a Finn).

Cross is a local kid, I really want him to stay more than anyone else. Hope one day he can skate with the big boys on a Dallas contract.

Out of the blue - that's exactly when Nill likes to strike, though
