Suter I hope...

...but I'm predicting Harley.


That would make no sense lol. They need to swing for upside. Dallas can afford to do it.

I would go with

Heiskanen-Lundkvist
Harley-Lindell
Suter-Miller

I know, but when has sense ever meant anything?

At least not in Dallas.

Maybe DeBoer time is different. But I have my doubts.

Who’s going to be the 7D? miller or hakanpaa?


It’ll probably be Harley sadly… realistically it should be either Hakanpaa or Suter.

Calling it now NYR will use both their 1sts in a trade for Patrick Kane

All they need is a third team and they can do it

Why do I always miss big trades, and why does Dallas always have to be stupid?

What I think we'll probably see:
Lindell Heiskanen
Suter Lundkvist
Harley Hakanpaa

Miller and Hanley scratched.

Yeah i disagree with scratching Harley but he’s still only 21. At the least the trade sets their top 4 for at least the next 6 years. It’s incredibly hard to acquire/find young top pair RHD, it’s a worthwhile bet by Dallas, I think lundkvist will compliment Heiskanens skillset

He's a Jeff Petry at best IMO

I think the forwards will be where the crazy roster moves come from. Lots of talented young guys buried in the minors so would not be shocked to see Kiviranta and Kero sent down to the AHL in favor of Dellandrea and Tufte. Looks like Damiani might fine a home at RW.

2015-2021 Petry was a great top pair D. I’m sure Dallas would take that

I don’t think it’s a “stupid” trade, per se…

I prefer the term “differently rational”.

I wouldn't say top pair d
More like 2 pair #3d power play quarterback 50point guy, okay defensively

I love Petry
Don't get me wrong.
But he was a #2 at best and better suited on the bottom pair

I think Galchenyuk also did something similar in the 2014 playoffs, I remember him having a goal after coming out of the box, those 2014 playoffs were great ( until Kreider ), Subban also had a goal after coming out of the box in a game vs Colorado, he was very good offensively but his personality led him to make questionable decisions, he tried to do too much sometimes
