I don't mind most pf the signings (though I think the numbers are off on some of them), but move Janmark to Center and add Val Nichushkin to the RW side on the 2nd line. Also, Vancouver isn't giving up a pick for a guy they can get on the free agent market in a week. Not a fan of the Johns trade at all. Johns was the Stars most phsyical defesneman this season and he had good shot suppression numbers as well. Given the fact that Dallas is going to have Klingberg, Honka, Lindell, and Heiskanen on the roster next season, they are going to need a big physical shut down guy in their bottom-4. Johns is that guy, DeHaan is not, and Johns is roughly $1M cheaper than DeHaan.
Don't sign DeHaan, don't trade Johns, add Nichushkin to the lineup, and it's not a bad fix.
