Dallas Stars GM Jim Nill recently joined Sportsradio 96.7 FM/1310 The Ticket (KTCK-AM) to talk all things hockey. Here are some highlights from the interview, edited lightly for clarity.

The NHL trade deadline is rapidly approaching, and some big moves have been made. But top teams still have needs, and we offer suggestions.

Stars defenseman Lian Bichsel is expected to be back in the lineup Tuesday, and his return brings a level of physicality that the Stars lack without him.

Matt Rempe is expected to face no discipline for his hit on Nick Blankenburg that took place during the New York Rangers’ Sunday night game against the Nashville Predators.

The 30-year-old defenseman has played an important role for Utah this season, and the team believes he’ll continue to do so moving forward.

Rangers' forward Matt Rempe elbowed Predators' defenseman Nick Blankenburg in the head in the first period on Sunday, which may prompt a suspension.
