2024-25 General Dallas Stars Talk

[Dallasman]

I was curious about a few things during this Wild game.

I was reminded Benn is a UFA this summer and will turn 36 before next season.

The first year of the big Hintz contract had no trade protection, but starting this season, he had full NMC protection kick in until the contract ends in 2031.

Robertson is in season 3 of his 4 season extension. The salary was back loaded to make his qualifying offer at the end of it $9.3 million. His contract also has no trade protection, and uh... Nill might want to take advantage of this freedom before getting to the end and needing to deal with the question of paying this qualifying offer he's no longer worth.

- to the Robertson part

Hintz has been completely invisible and brings nothing to this team right now. At this point Benn is skating harder every night.

Him and Robertson need to be split up, Robertson-Stankoven & Hintz-Johnston, fill the rest of the bottom 9 around that so we can at least wake up one of them.

Leads the team in individual high danger scoring chances, second in individual scoring chances, individual expected goals for and shots on goal. Leads the team in FO wins. (All 5v5)

Not his best season by a country mile, but far from the problem and I guess shouldn’t be invisible
