The Dallas Stars are still looking for their first win of the new year and their next oppurtunity is two straight games versus the hated rival Minnesota Wild. On today's episode of Locked On Stars, we prepare with a special crossover episode with Seth Toupal of Locked On Wild! The discussion starts on the Stars lackluster play to begin 2024 and dropping games because of blowing leads or having to play catch up in the 3rd period. Also, how the Stars are handling injuries to key players such as Jake Oettinger and Miro Heiskanen. Joey explains how well Scott Wedgewood has been playing since Otter went down, but desperately needs a rest after starting in 11 straight games. Miro's injury is much bigger because the defense has been a consistent issue for the Stars even with him in the lineup. His absence magnifies the problem and the Stars will have to make a move to fix it if they want to go deep in the playoffs. The next segment, Seth takes questions on what the Wild have looked like since Dean Evanson was fired earlier in the season. How the goaltending tandem of Filip Gustavsson and Marc-Andre Fluery has slowly gotten better as the season has progressed, and how great the talented young defensemen Brock Faber has looked this season. The show wraps up with Joey and Seth choosing which category the Stars or Wild have an advantage in ahead of tonight's matchup. Which offense, defense, goaltending, or special teams would you take??
