Pavelski may be out of chances to win a Stanley Cup after the Dallas Stars came up short again

Joe Pavelski might be out of chances to win a Stanley Cup title after the Dallas Stars came up short again. It is unclear if the nearly 40-year-old Pavelski wants to give it another try after a combined 1,533 NHL games, and now back-to-back seasons that ended in the Western Conference Final with a Game 6 loss. “I don't know if it'll be Joe's last game or not, but absolute privilege of my coaching career to coach a guy like that," Stars coach Pete DeBoer said after a 2-1 loss in the series finale at Edmonton. Instead of getting home Monday to prepare for another Game 7, a situation in which DeBoer is 8-0 with four different teams, the season was over for West top seed Dallas.
