Description
This trade speeds up a stars rebuild. They have a lot of money tied up in older players. They need those vets to held build young players.

Stars add additional top goalie in the system in Erik Portillo
Set up Ryan Johnson for a more youthful defense
Add an additional nhl experience defender playing great hockey in Pilut
Add two young nhl talents in Olofsson and Mittelstadt. Olofsson's goal scoring ability will help reduce falling off the scoresheet with dallas.

Also receive a 1st and 2nd to help rebuild

This offers a much faster rebuild and with their veteran players to help with development of Casey and Victor. Stars are close to a rebuild and need to build a better prospect pipeline which sabres can offer. Top 10 protected is standard with this. Robertson joins a team on an upward rebuild needing more goal scoring and talent.

There is no way Dallas wants this package. You took our 23 first and top 10 protected it, and then added a bunch of stuff that didn't hurt at all. Olofsson hurts to me, but I think I'm in the minority that really likes him. They are going to want a ton for Robertson, and it's gonna be less quantity and more quality.

And this is why we won't be going after Robertson. Power isn't on the table.
