Dallas Stars Hall of Fame

The Dallas Stars Hall of Fame recognizes players and/or staff members who have positively impacted the Dallas Stars Hockey Club in such a way that their contributions cannot be overlooked. The two categories of the Dallas Stars Hall of Fame are Player (Skater/Goaltender) and Builder (Executive Level Staff or Coach). A maximum of one Player and one Builder are eligible for selection in any election period and there is no requirement that the maximum of either category is reached in any given election period.

Players must demonstrate exceptional attributes in the areas of playing ability, sportsmanship, character and contributions to the Dallas Stars Hockey Club, while builders are evaluated on their demonstration of exceptional attributes in coaching, managerial or executive ability, or ability in another significant off-ice role, sportsmanship, character and contributions to the Dallas Stars Hockey Club and to the game of hockey in general.

Any player who had their number retired by the Dallas Stars Hockey Club received immediate inclusion into the Dallas Stars Hall of Fame without consideration by the Selection Committee. Similarly, all owners of the Dallas Stars Hockey Club received automatic induction as Builders without consideration by the Selection Committee.

The Dallas Stars Hall of Fame Selection Committee includes Tom Gaglardi (Dallas Stars Owner and Governor), Brad Alberts (Dallas Stars President and CEO), Lia Assimakopoulos (Dallas Morning News), Taylor Baird (NHL.com), Matt Bowman (Dallas Stars Executive Vice President and Chief Revenue Officer), Tim Cowlishaw (Dallas Morning News), Elliotte Friedman (Sportsnet), Mike Heika (DallasStars.com), Bruce LeVine (The Ticket), Jim Lites (Dallas Stars HOF Member), Daryl Reaugh (Victory+), Rob Scichili (Tony Fay Public Relations) and Dan Stuchal (Dallas Stars Chief Operations Officer, StarCenters and Multisport).
