Miro Heiskanen and Thomas Harley: A Match Made in Heaven for the Dallas Stars!

The Dallas Stars win a thrilling overtime game at home over the Anaheim Ducks by a final score of 4-3. Miro Heiskanen scores the game tying goal in his return and leads all Stars with 25:33 minutes of TOI. Thomas Harley picks up an assist and score the game winner in OT with his 10th goal of the season. On today's episode of Locked On Stars, we celebrate the fact that Miro and Harley are playing on the same pairing. This is quickly becoming one of the best pairings in all of hockey and you could see why last night. Miro was rusty after 3 weeks off, but was really active in the game and did not miss a beat, Harley continues to impress and made plays all over the rink. Having Nils Lundkvist back in the lineup allows for more versatility on the defensive pairings for Head Coach Pete DeBoer and allows Harley and Heiskanen to play together. All of that leads to good things for the Dallas Stars. However, the Stars had some sloppy moments that cost them in the game. We try to answer at points this season why the Stars do not look connected as a team. When the game becomes chaotic and out of structure, the Stars really seem to struggle and therefore surrender more opportunities. It's important for the Stars to have good puck management and not allow the game to get away from the style they would like to play to be successful. The final segment revolves around Jake Oettinger, Joey states he is not worries about Oettinger come playoff time because he has shown he can elevate his play in the biggest moments. He also realizes that Otter's numbers have slipped this season and from his perspective not as comfortable in the crease. The great thing is the Stars are still winning and are top 10 in the NHL this season, that could mean great things if Otter finds his game, but could lead to problems if he doesn't.
