Description
Dallas Stars general manager Jim Nill has not shaved his trademark mustache in decades. Would he shave it if it meant the Stars win the Stanley Cup this year?
"In an instant, yes,” Nill smiled. “You might not recognize me, but that's not a bad thing either, maybe.”
Nill’s humility is as consistent as his results.
The back-to-back winner of NHL GM of the Year — with a strong case for a third honor this season — has built an annual Cup contender with a vision rooted in balance: competitiveness in the present without sacrificing the future.
“I want this team to be good right now… but I also want it to be good three, four, five years down the road,” Nill explained. “That’s the balancing act. That’s the tough part.”
