Value of: Oleksiak

[Dynamite Time]

Why is he not likely to be resigned by dallas? Heiskanen's next contract playing a part im assuming?

Heiskanen, Klingberg and Lindell are the 3D that Dallas will protect for the ED. I wouldn’t mind a fair trade moving Lindell and resigning Oleksiak myself though.

You need 90 or 92 Chara.

What are the deking stats? I don’t like dmen that are bad at handling the puck, even if they have good skating. Doesn’t fit my play style.

Jets could use his size....but for who?

 

[Unspecified]

I am just glad he finally started using his size. Early on in his career i have seen 5'8 140 pound teenagers hit harder than him. IF he is available it is going to cost.

As said before. A part of me would rather move Lindell before his NMC kicks in and sign Oleksiak. Lindell's cap hit and NMC might scare teams off though.

2019 4th round draft pick.

 

[The Great Mighty Poo]

He can only be traded to Dallas or Pittsburgh for 4th round picks.

I'd love to get Lindell but feel like Dallas wouldn't move him.

Wouldn't be suprised if he's one of the "hottest" targets at the deadline if Dallas shops him...

6'7, 255lbs, cup-final experience, decent mobility, 28 years old and a $2.1m cap hit -- where if Dallas retains, basically anybody can fit him in. The ultimate "playoff depth".

 

[untouchable21]

Can he or has he played the right side at all?

 

[catters078]

Dallas is in the tricky spot where it might be beneficial to try to sign him after the expansion draft.

If hes left as a UFA might have Seattle avoid taking him, so Dallas chance their arm and sign him when FA starts.

I feel they like having a big and mobile defenseman to pair with Heiskanen, Miro seems comfortable with him so i think Dallas would want to keep that top 4 consistancy.

 

[topdawg]

What are people thinking his next contract is going to be? Years and caplet?

[Dread Clawz]

Damn, wanted him on the Panthers. Oh well, David Savard come on down...

 

[BeaverSports]

I agree with other Stars fans who would rather try to re-sign him and shop Lindell. Oleksiak is far more impactful in all three zones.
