Dallas Thinks They Are Going To Win It All

from Tracey Myers of the Star-Telegram,

Tom Hicks was ready to talk hockey. The Dallas Stars’ owner sat in his downtown Dallas office on Tuesday, excited about the possibilities of the new season.

“In the last month we’ve been hearing from [co-general managers] Les [Jackson] and Brett [Hull], and Brett kind of clearly says the players think they’re going to win it all this year. They have a lot of confidence, and that’s a great starting point. You go back 10 years, I think we had that feeling we were going to win it all that year. We’re not as experienced a team as that one was, so you have a lot of unknowns that creep into it. But we have an opportunity to be special.”

If absolutely nobody on their roster gets injured at all this year… maybe.

But since that’s HIGHLY unlikely…

Also, DAL would have ot hope that they don’t face DET in the playoffs, because if they do DET owns them and Turco in particular.  Marty has mental issues facing DET at this point.

So I don’t see a lot of room or chance for them to win it all.  It’s possible, but unlikely…  they don’t have the depth and injuries WILL play a role with them.

Maybe I’m making only a semantic argument here, but if you truly think you’re going to win it all instead of just thinking you can win it all, you probably won’t win it all.
