TEAM PICTURE

The Stars took their annual team picture today and this yearly snapshot got me thinking about turnover.

Turnover on the Stars. Turnover in pro sports in general.

How many from this year’s picture were in last year’s?

How many were in the 2003 picture? The last team to win a playoff series.

Who was in the 2000 photo? The last trip to the Final.

And who was all smiles back in 1999?

Here are my exhaustive findings:
