Skip deserves credit for some of what worked. Giving him a pass for the rest goes too far.
The Rangers hired him to raise the standard. How much actually changed?
My full Year 1 evaluation of Skip Schumaker:
Risacher went No. 1 in 2024. Cooper Flagg followed in 2025. Flagg says they’ve talked about that pressure, and he’s told Risacher Dallas cares about his impact, not his draft slot. Pretty cool seeing two young Mavericks already looking out for each other. #MFFL
I'm sorry. Losing to New Jersey and Montreal back to back in your own building is not a slump. It's a wake-up call. Columbus comes in Saturday and this group just cannot let it become three. #TexasHockey
Montreal went 0 for 4 on the PP and still won by three. Yikes. #TexasHockey
That 3rd period power play was the whole game. Two minutes with Montreal scrambling and Dallas came away with one Johnston look. Your top unit just cannot go quiet in a two goal hole. #TexasHockey
Big comeback energy in the building. Just waiting on the comeback part… #TexasHockey
Down 4-1 you need your captain to grab this thing by the collar. Benn did exactly that. #TexasHockey
Lane Hutson setting Habs records in our building. Rude… #TexasHockey
Newhook beat them on a backhand, then Caufield got left alone at the doorstep for a rebound. Those are two coverage breakdowns right in front of Otter. That's on the D, not the goalie. #TexasHockey
Good news is the Stars tied it. Bad news is they kept playing after that… #TexasHockey
Johnston set the franchise record for PP goals last season and some of y'all were worried after a slow start. First one of the year ties it. Never doubt that kid. #TexasHockey
Myers, Bichsel, Harley and Kiviranta all have giveaways already. Habs don't need to forecheck when you keep handing it to them… #TexasHockey
No Suzuki, no Demidov, no Matheson. After Tuesday's 5-1 mess, if the Stars don't take care of this Habs team at home, that's on them. Zero excuses.
DeMarvion Overshown came back after five missed games and ended an Eagles drive with a fourth-quarter pick. Then he spoke about two supporters he’d lost, his faith and how much he’d missed his teammates. Good to have No. 0 back.
The Mavs are up 16 with under ten minutes to go and I still won't exhale. Thirty years of Cowboys football does that to a person.
