32 in 32 lineups - Dallas Stars

Created by: zk97
Team: 2022-23 Dallas Stars
Initial Creation Date: Aug. 18, 2022

Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
The Stars are an intriguing team to watch this offseason. With top RFAs Jason Robertson and Jake Oettinger still unsigned, their roster is not set in stone just yet. Robertson could command up to 8 million on an 8 year deal, whereas Oettinger could get around 4-5 million on a 4-5 year deal. With only 10 million in cap space to work with, the Stars may have to make a trade, or run with a 21 man roster.
The most likely trade candidate seems to be Anton Khudobin, who has one year left on his deal with a 3.3M cap hit. Dallas will most likely have to move a second round pick with him to get rid of him, or a prospect of equal caliber.
On offense, the Stars have three prospects who could crack the NHL roster in Logan Stankoven, Wyatt Johnston, and Mavrik Bourque. All three of them had very good seasons in their respective junior leagues, but it seems like Bourque may be the one who makes the cut. With four QMJHL seasons under his belt at age 20 as well as six games in the AHL, where he notched 1 goal and 5 points, he'll get a third line spot in the NHL. If he doesn't perform, Dallas has Stankoven and Johnston who could get 9 game trials. During the time with all three in the NHL (preferably not on the same line), Tanner Kero and Joel Kiviranta would likely be demoted to the minors.
On defense, the corps look almost the same as last season, but without John Klingberg. Miro Heiskanen will likely be shifted to the right side, with Esa Lindell taking the top pairing spot. The hope is that Thomas Harley takes the next step this season and hopefully gets the second pairing spot from Ryan Suter, who is quickly aging.

Oettinger's 5-year deal is bad for the Stars. Takes him into UFA status during the middle of his prime. He gets either 2 (RFA), 3 (RFA), or 8 (max length)

Also, Seguin will be the Stars 2nd line center. Benn is likely going to start the year either at C or LW on the 3rd line.

3 at 4.25 is where I'm estimating Oettinger right now

If I had to give an educated guess on the Stars opening night top-9, it would be:

Robertson-Hintz-Pavelski
Marchment-Seguin-Gurianov
Peterson-Benn-Studenic

I could also see Dellandrea or Bourque sliding into that 3C spot and pushing Benn to the 3LW spot and Peterson down to the 4LW
