Jim Nill has made it pretty clear that he’s looking for internal solutions to the Stars’ problems.



Whether it was this summer or once the season started, when questions about the team’s depth scoring arose, the GM stood by his players and saw an answer amongst the group he had already assembled.



When the defense was rocked by injuries Nill, for the most part, found his answers internally. The unit has acquitted itself rather well for a group seems to sustain every injury possible.



Nill said he likes his team and a trade likely isn’t happening any time soon. And that makes sense when you consider the Stars’ salary cap situation. Dallas was already tight against the cap; the rash of injuries only made it worse.



For the Stars to make a big-ticket trade, the type fans are clamoring for on social media, Dallas would have to part with one of their biggest pieces or gather quite a few assets to make the cap gymnastics work...
