NHL Insider Sean Shapiro joins host Gavin Spittle to talk about Glen Gulutzan's comments to reporters about the possibility of Harley, Lundkvist and Duchene all returning to the lineup as soon as next week. The guys talk about the success of the penalty kill and the great pairing of Esa Lindell and Miro Heiskanen. They talk about possible trade candidates for the Stars to pursue with their injuries this season. Are the Colorado Avalanche the best team in the NHL? Sean sure thinks so. NHL.com put out a top Western Conference NHL prospects article, and the Stars' Cameron Schmidt is on there. Sean and Gavin talk about his 3rd round selection because of his size, and he is playing very well so far for Vancouver in the WHL. A Stars-Sharks preview and who would the Stars realistically trade this deadline?
