THE BOYS OF 98-99
I love those “Where are they now” features.
Maybe it’s the curious nature in me, or perhaps I just enjoy seeing that others lives have become more mundane and pathetic than my own. Whatever it is, I am locked on when I stumble upon those features about the Jan-Michael Vincents, David Coverdales and Ronnie Duguays of the world.
So with that I ask, just where are those talented characters that made up the 1998-99 Dallas Stars now that we are ten years removed from the gang taking all of us who followed them on such an intoxicating and memorable ride to Stanley Cup glory?
To the best of my knowledge, this is what I know:
