I don't recognize those names so lets just trade him straight up for Necas.
Damn dude, you are going to be disappointed by the return.

I’m going to dream big! But ya, you’re probably right.Damn dude, you are going to be disappointed by the return.
Let us dream. Deep down we all know we aren't getting a return and we're going to walk him right to ufa, but let us have our brief ray of sunshine.Damn dude, you are going to be disappointed by the return.

Fair enough, I’ve basically already committed to not watching at all next season if the team lets these guys walk and Nill doesn’t get fired as a result. I’ve watched lots of bad stars hockey in my time, but I’m too old to tolerate that level of trash managing.
None of us thought Brendan Morrow would return what he did at the time. Who knows.

Man ... I remember having a low-key panic attack when that trade was breaking. I was so excited I just remember being a little out of breath. Also shows to not get too enamored with a prospect though ... lol. To be fair though, we still aren't talking about a guy that was a roster player in a Top 6/Top 4 role. I think that's fair to say it's fun to think about but delusional.
#Necas
You're right about prospects that might be available though. Definitely can get shocked about who a team might actually be willing to include that's not on their roster, and I think Joe Morrow definitely was that at that time.
I don't think Necas is going to happen. I think we're going to see something more like Jordan Staal's trade from PIT to CAR return at absolute best.
That'd be great though, no? I mean that type of package would be huge.
8th overall, Brandon Sutter, and Brian Dumoulin is basically what they've reported Dallas is asking for: 3 key pieces. I think something comparable to that would actually be a huge win for Dallas. Pittsburgh got a Top 10 pick, a 23 year old roster player that was quality, and a 21 year old defender coming off an excellent career with Boston College.
I'd be very stocked for something like that. From that Athletic article, if you replace Fast with a 1st, I think you have a similar package. It's not quite as good though: 2023rd 1st, Suzuki, and Koivunen. I still think Morrow would be a worthy target though as well.
Wheeler’s 2022 NHL prospect pool rankings: No. 9 Carolina HurricanesBut the reality of his game is much smoother than the look of it, with elite skating ability, a physical presence, excellent transition value (both ways), and an overall toughness and confidence about him. His skating helps him escape trouble, he plays an aggressive style, and he’s a righty with pro athleticism. Those things should make him a useful No. 4-6 D who gives a group of six some uncommon elements.
Thomas Harley has the potential to be that risky puck moving dman, but the Stars are loaded on the left hand side and need right handers on the blueline so he does fit a need that way.Not a Stars fan, but is there anyone in the system to replace Klingberg?
Not replacing the player himself but more like being able to take over his minutes and provide somewhat as what he's provided on the back end thus far.
Is there a fit for Tyson Barrie assuming Klingberg is traded to a contender at the TDL? This isn't to suggest they're being traded for each other.
I’ve said it before , I could see something happening with klingberg for Barrie . Obviously Edmonton would be adding . Not saying this should happen but I could see nill doing it .I am pretty sure Barrie is best friends with Benn so there would be at least one advocate on the team .Not a Stars fan, but is there anyone in the system to replace Klingberg?

Klingberg wouldn't be traded to Edmonton. He would be traded to a cup contender. Edmonton is NOT a contender by any means.I’ve said it before , I could see something happening with klingberg for Barrie . Obviously Edmonton would be adding .

Klingberg is getting traded to the highest bidder regardless of the team's status. He has no means by which to force a trade to teams of a specific caliber because he has no Nmc or NTc, other than saying he won't sign with anyone but a contender but that is all he can do.Klingberg wouldn't be traded to Edmonton. He would be traded to a cup contender. Edmonton is NOT a contender by any means.
I was looking to see if Edmonton could move Barrie for a shutdown D in Hakaanpa. Barrie's cap hit is at 4.5M and he's got 2 years left after this season. Evan Bouchard made him redundant as Bouchard can play top pairing and the PP. I'm looking to see if it makes sense from the Stars perspective to trade Barrie for Hakaanpa.
So something like Barrie + Samorukov or Niemelainen for Hakaanpa.
Edmonton gets a shutdown D and Stars get Klingberg's replacement and a younger shutdown D. Both Samorukov and Nemo should be NHL ready next season. They could step in now but they'd need to adjust at the NHL level.
