Angus MacDonell, a name you might not know now, but could be hearing a lot more of in the future. Dallas locking him up before he could re-enter the draft is a bold move. Is this a steal for the Stars, or are they overvaluing a player with a penalty problem? MacDonell’s physicality is a double-edged sword. Does his offensive upside outweigh his tendency for trips to the penalty box? Can he refine his game in the AHL and become a key contributor for the Stars down the line? Where do you see MacDonell fitting in with the Stars long-term plans? Is he a future top-six forward, a bottom-six grinder, or something in between? With Dallas’ tendency towards scoring lines, does a player like MacDonell even have a place in their system? Let the debate begin.
