There are lots of approaches fans of any sport can take to tracking prospect development, from my "what happens happens" school to the people who have a ton of fun tracking every turn of every guy in the system.

Once again it's that time of year here on Defending Big D where we take a look at each player that suited up for 25 or more games this season and take a look back at their season.

Over the next six weeks or so, we'll be counting down the Top 20 prospects in the Dallas Stars system -- leading up the NHL Entry Draft.

The loss mathematically eliminated the Stars from postseason consideration with six games remaining on the schedule, just two of which are at home.

Some of you may remember that I wrote a piece a while back talking about how we are going to need to draft at least one goalie/pick up a young free agent goalie in order to deal with a serious lack of depth at the goalie position within the next two years.
