Thread: Vancouver blockbuster
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>justaBoss</b></div><div>Don't see either trade happening. VAN doesn't need really need Klingberg and DAL shouldn't trade Faksa.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Heiskanen4Vezina</b></div><div>Agree on the Vancouver part, disagree about Dallas not trading Faksa. With Dickinson already in the NHL, and Dellandrea likely there next year, Faksa’s “checking center” role is is still covered. Dallas isn’t moving Dellandrea, and they could get more for Faksa. Let Dickinson/Dellandrea fill Faksa’s role and get a good return for him in the process.</div></div>

To be honest I didn’t really put much effort into this post. Kind of made it in Vancouvers favour so I wouldn’t get ripped by them lmao but it was just something that came to my mind and I thought I’d put it out there and see what the feedback was. Although I like the idea of trading Klingberg for a solid scorer if we can bring in Pietrangelo, and I also think Harley will make the jump next season

Thread: Realistic Pietrangelo landing spot IF STL does not re-sign him
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Karr31</b></div><div>Let me first say, lot of moves and not sure all would work or be necessary, but I could get behind Pietrangelo coming aboard!

Re-signing Bow, L'Esperance would be iffy, Calderone likely not going to happen. I'd be ok with Perry but don't think likely, and would prefer to stay away from Frolik.

Last team I built on here, I also traded Faksa, but did so for a 2nd rd pick in this yr's deep draft. We could use more future assets after last year's buy &amp; push. My team was labeled 'Poised' if want to see another approach.

A lot to like here though!</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>justaBoss</b></div><div>If only we had the money to re-sign Heiskanen, I'd probably consider it.

Also they should trade Lindell since they'd lose him for free in the expansion draft.

I'm opposed to trading Faksa, but that's nothing new. I value a great defensive C above an injury-prone middle-6 LW we don't really need.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>DiehardRedWingsFan58</b></div><div>Could definitely see Dallas as a possible top 5 destination for Alex Pietrangelo. It is not too far from his St Louis home. They'd be just as good as any.</div></div>

I agree with just about all of this here. Pietrangelo would be a great add and arguably give us the best d group in the league for a heat until we have to trade one of Lindell or Klingberg. Than the Heiskanen contract comes in and you’re looking at something like Chabots 8x8. I personally don’t like the Faksa/Johnsson trade for Dallas although it is fair but I’m bias to Faksa 😂 if Dallas can make it work though and grab their biggest rivals best player than I’m here for it

Thread: What Dallas Stars could have been if they drafted properly
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>justaBoss</b></div><div>I dunno about how accurate is that source of yours.

Hockey-reference.com shows them being quite even both offensively and defensively, but the biggest difference is the zone starts for each players. According to them, Makar's offensive zone starts are 10% higher than Heiskanen's, so it's not a miracle he has more points. Heiskanen is used more as a defensive D-man than Makar is.

Here's the links

They don’t wanna know this tho cause it won’t fit their narrative. Heiskanen is the superior one as of now
