Sign and trade Oleksiak, move in J.T. Miller, and sign Vanek.

Team: 2017-18 Dallas Stars
Initial Creation Date: Aug. 1, 2017

Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
With 5.9 million dollars in cap coming off the books when Lehtonen's contract expires, Dallas with have some room to play with, so it should be no problem resigning Miller and retaining Spezza's contract for one more season. New York is in a big scramble for a 2C, and neither Miller or Hayes is ready to play that role with that franchise. However, with crazy center depth in Dallas, Hanzal and Faksa could also play 2C providing some interesting options for Ken Hitchcock's lines this year. Miller can play in the Middle 6 basically in any position, and he can play both PK and PP. From New York's perspective, they are in desperate need of a 2C who can put up points, while Hayes and Lias Anderson develope into that role. Spezza can be a perfect fit with them, paying him about the same as Zibenejad for 2 more years. There isn't really room for Oleksiak on the blue line in Dallas and they don't need him thanks to the Methot trade, so a sign and trade would be ideal for the money he'll get. With the Senators losing Methot, they'll need a big defensive defensman, and Oleksiak can provide that. He is still pretty young too. The Vanek signing is just to touch up the top six and an already deadly powerplay unit.

There are also a bunch of other combinations that Hitch could do, like splitting up Benn and Seguin, and perhaps playing Radulov on the 3rd line to have 3 deadly offensive lines.

From an avid follower I believe Dallas would certainly consider these deals, though I'm not sure they'd retain salary on Spezza, as there'd be no reason to with NY needing the trade more than Dallas. Having said that, I don't see Dallas making a move like that unless the team is struggling come the deadline, as I believe Nill likes what he has (talent, vet mix, versatility) if this team gets into the playoffs. Oleksiak being moved though could definitely be a possibility with us having too many D going in. Nemeth would be my first choice, but that offer would be fair if it were the only ask. As for Vanek, no need unless injuries were to hit us in preseason.
