The Dallas Stars Plan without Lian Bichsel | Preview of the Ottawa Senators and Shooting Star!

On today's episode of Locked On Stars, Joey tries to explain how the Dallas Stars will move forward without Lian Bichsel in the lineup. Matt Dumba was activated off IR on New Year's Eve which meant Bichsel had to be loaned back to the AHL in order to make room for Dumba. Joey believes Bichsel is one of the six best defenseman on the Stars right now so it is bittersweet to see Dumba back. Are the pairings we saw against Buffalo the next best solution if Dallas feels forced to play Dumba? Next, we preview tonight's contest versus the Ottawa Senators who have won seven out of their last ten to turn their season around. Tim Stutzle, Brady Tkachuck and Drake Batherson are a trio of young forwards to watch out for against the Sens. In the final segment, Joey gives his Shooting Star pick for the first game of 2025!
