For much of the season, and especially the playoffs, it appeared the Dallas Stars found the right balance of young talent and veteran leaders on its roster....
“We have a lot of young players coming in, and they’re going to have to earn it,” Nill said. “We know we’re going to be a kiddy corps down below. It’s gonna be a young team. It’s a good thing to have. … We hope those players are going to come up and push these players here in the NHL for spots.”
“The biggest step you’re ever going to make is from juniors, college or Europe to the American Hockey League, and Mavrik lived it,” Nill said. “We’re very happy with his development. We talked about game-time decision players, and he was one of those guys. That just shows where he took his game to.” “Back up to the trade deadline, everybody’s beating the drums saying we’ve got to add to it, and you give up picks to do it,” Nill said. “In two weeks, I’m going to be sitting there and not doing much.
Nill said his strategy likely will be to take whoever is best available when the 61st pick comes around in the second round. He did say trading up is a possibility.
