Jake Riepma joined Shan, RJ, and Bobby in studio to break down the Stars’ brutal Game 4 loss and whether they still have hope. He broke down Dallas’ missed chances and lack of finishing, the team’s leadership, and the lack of physical response to the cheap shots on Roope Hintz. Jake discussed DeBoer’s postgame tone, Jamie Benn’s role, and whether the Stars were unlucky or simply outplayed.
