The Dallas Stars Alumni Weekend is quite the ordeal. It started with a private Alumni-Only golf outing on Thursday at PGA Frisco’s West Course, to the Dallas Stars Big Heart Celebrity Golf Challenge on Friday at PGA Frisco’s Championship East Course, host of the 2027 PGA Championship, to the Alumni Game on Saturday, we can’t help but wonder how long it will take some of our favorite Stars heroes of the past to recover from all that fun. Our very own Craig Ludwig will provide a full recap of events (at least what he can legally talk about) and we will break down some exclusive Alumni Game footage. Then we’ll present our 3 Stars of the Week and our 3 Villains of the Week, followed by a look at the race for 2nd place in the Central Division between the Stars and Wild and a practice update from Sam. Finally, we have a jam-packed NHL News & Notes segment, headlined by the New York Islanders firing head coach Patrick Roy on Easter Sunday and hiring former Stars head coach Pete DeBoer to a long term contract.

Jake Oettinger isn’t just playing better, he’s evolving into a complete, elite NHL goaltender.

From becoming a father and securing a major contract to representing his country on the Olympic stage, Oettinger has navigated a season full of life-changing moments off the ice and it’s translating into a more focused, composed presence in net.

The crew breaks down how his mental growth, perspective, and experience, from the playoff bubble to deep postseason runs, are shaping him into a goalie built for the biggest moments.

With over 300 NHL games under his belt and a growing résumé of high-pressure situations, Oettinger’s mindset, calmness, and ability to reset may be the key to a deep playoff run for Dallas.

Are the Dallas Stars built differently this year or are the same concerns creeping back in?

The crew dives into the balance between physicality, intensity, and discipline, and how last season’s “too soft” narrative may have impacted this team’s identity. From playoff lessons to coaching adjustments, the Stars are trying to find the right mix, not too passive, not too reckless.

With recent struggles triggering fan PTSD from last year’s late-season dip, the question becomes: have the Stars finally developed that switch they can flip when it matters most?

Plus, Dallas beat writer Mike Heika weighs in, offering insight into the team’s mindset, coaching adjustments, and how accountability is already showing up on the ice with players like Jason Robertson responding.

Now THAT was more like the Dallas Stars hockey we’ve grown accustomed to this season! Returning to American Airlines Centers after a four-game East Coast road trip and a stretch with just one win in their last seven (1-4-2), the Stars brought back the emotion and intensity into their game against the Winnipeg Jets on Thursday night that head coach Glen Gulutzan had challenged his group to rediscover after a lackluster two weeks of play. We have a special guest in-studio today, as our friend Mike Heika, senior writer for Dallas Stars-dot-com, joins us to talk about this challenge and response. We’ll also look at Jake Oettinger’s play this season, especially since the Olympic break. Then we’ll dive into Jim Nill’s contract extension, Rich Peverley’s promotion to assistant general manager and AGM Scott White being linked to the Nashville Predators GM search. We’ll finish things off with a look at the up-to-date NHL playoff races in both conferences.

Jake Oettinger stopped all 22 shots he faced to earn his third shutout of the season as the Dallas Stars blanked the Winnipeg Jets 3-0 on Thursday night at American Airlines Center. With the win, the Stars earned a four-game sweep of the regular season series with the Jets, the second time Dallas has done that (2015-16, 2025-26) since the Jets relocated from Atlanta. Arttu Hyry and Adam Erne each had two-point nights (1 goal, 1 assist) and Matt Duchene scored a power play goal. Join the DLLS Stars Post Game Show as we recap all the main storylines, provide comprehensive breakdowns of key plays and we take your Super Chats!

The Dallas Stars limped home, literally, from a four-game Eastern Conference road trip where they went 1-2-1 and lost four players due to injury (Sam Steel, Nathan Bastian, Michael Bunting & Tyler Myers). While the Stars had a legitimate chance to win each of the four games, they were up against teams that were playing with a much higher level of urgency due to their respective playoff race standings and Dallas seemed to have trouble matching that intensity. So, that leads us to the topic that, other than needing time for some injured players to recover, it seems like the 2026 Stanley Cup Playoffs cannot get here fast enough. Also on today’s show, we look at Jake Oettinger’s & Casey DeSmith’s performance in games on the second night of a back-to-back, along with a hilarious flashback clip from last Sunday’s DLLS Stars Pregame Show. Plus, we’ll talk Jim Nill’s contract extension, Toronto fires GM Brad Treliving, Vegas fires head coach Bruce Cassidy and hires John Tortorella and if we have any time left, Alex Ovechkin breaks even more records and is chasing another Wayne Gretzky record.
