Les Jackson and Brett Hull now have three more years to shape the Stars as co-general managers. And coach Dave Tippett will be receiving a similar contract extension, possibly as early as today and almost certainly by next week. In a move Stars owner Tom Hicks endorsed during the Western Conference finals, the Stars officially lifted the "interim" designation from Jackson and Hull on Thursday. The two had held that position since Nov. 13, 2007, when they replaced Doug Armstrong, who was fired as general manager.

I heard Brett Hull's contract has an "all you can eat" allowance in it...

I heard the it was a demand of Hull's...But the Stars.. "took it, OFF the table..." as too expensive.

He'll have to settle for tortilla chips and beer during games. They'll throw the hot salsa as a bonus!

only when they're winning - the salsa is a performance bonus!

.....Someone kicked that team in the ****. It's a smart move to gain some stability until it's clear who's going to be dictating the future. Dallas was the only other team than the Flyers who achieved more than they were supposed to. Richards was a brilliant move and the Stars are a team to watch.
