After one of the most shocking late-game collapses in NHL memory, Ryan and Chris ask the question on every Dallas Stars fan’s mind: Is this team actually ready for the playoffs?

We break down the aftermath of the Vancouver game, explore how momentum (or the lack of it) is impacting the Stars, and debate whether leadership—or just bad luck—is to blame.
