Jim Nill Nuclear Trade: 5 trade targets for the Dallas Stars

Bedard? Holy Hell.

Lmfao I can't believe that someone seriously wrote that

This is genuinely hilarious:

I think you could get him with some first-round draft picks, Antonio Stranges, Bourque, and other prospects.

This is also funny:

I did look it up, and you can trade for a player on an entry-level contract

 

[Dynamite Time]

Still. I can’t believe someone would even write that. No way that ever happens. Especially in the same division.

Yeah that made me laugh when I read it earlier today, well yesterday.

 

[Azzuri]

Pretty sure ELC's dont have NTCs lol. Sounds like written by AI

 

[Dynamite Time]

Not sure what the coaching staff is doing with the offensive lines. Prior to Roope going out, they had a very good thing going. I don’t get why they haven’t gotten back to it.

Robo-Hintz-Daddy
Benn-Duchene-Johnston
Bourque-Steel-Stank


On the defensive side of things. I like that group of 6. They can continue rotating Dumba & Lundqvist until they find a legitimate RD to play 16-20 minutes a night.

I’m good with keeping Miro on the right side. The whole idea of Miro not being able to play to his fullest potential while on his off side is bogus. He’s had plenty of games on the left side this year, and he looks no different. I think it’s safe to finally put that narrative to bed.

Oh hell haha; took me a minute cause I’ve had a few but was going Craig isn’t with us anymore…

Then realized it was Brendan plugged in cause he won’t see any time on defense with Bischel back up.

Agree with the forward lines as well; must be rolling Hintz back in with less minutes.

Hopefully he gets back to 100% soon cause Robertson has found his game and I think Stankoven tried again on the RW could click.

 

[MrHeiskanen]

Vegas = BIG

Dumba = 1" Taller

Dumba must play over Lundkvist

NHL coaches are the dumbest people in the world.

Smith is actually a competent forward, too. Played forward until the age of 15 before switching to defense. Played forward in the NHL for the Rangers, too.

dumba isnt charmin soft- lundkvist would look good in a LULEA jersey though

 

[Dallasman]

Yup. Dumba is far from soft,

He just can't play D to save his life.

neither can Nils

 

[Dallasman]

neither can Nils

Yup. but Nils can move the puck better than Dumba.

 

[MrHeiskanen]

Nils has been fine this year, occasional f*** ups and weird plays.. but pretty good overall.

Dumba hasn't had a single game without 10+ f*** ups this season. The guy is absolute trash.

 

[Satan]

as if that matters when Nils cant win battles to have the puck on his stick

 

[Dallasman]

100% accurate.

 

[Dynamite Time]

“Oettinger motivated to be No. 1 goalie for U.S.” story on NHL site; not going to happen as long as Hellebuyck is there.

 

[MrHeiskanen]

I mean, if Hellebuyck is in playoff form then Oettinger will take the net. Connor is a regular season demon, but pressure gets amped up and he can't stop a beach ball.

I can't get too invested in a fight about which guy should ideally be your #7. Neither is particularly useful and won't be playing once Bichsel is up full time and Nill had added a guy via trade.

IF Nill adds someone. Not confident in him after the signings in the offseason. Hope he can prove us wrong though.

He has been the 4th best dman 5 on 5 imo

I saw that and thought good on him for having big dreams lol

 

[piqued]

Team USA would be deranged not to play Hellebuyck every second of the tournament but then again they left Robertson off the roster so they may just be stupid

 

[eartotheground]

am i crazy or did the avatars get shot with the shrink ray gun?

Who knows, they are at least square again

I mean it was slim pickings in the offseason. Every Stars fan should have all the confidence in the world with Nill considering how he’s done since joining the organization.

I mean, if Hellebuyck is in playoff form then Oettinger will take the net. Connor is a regular season demon, but pressure gets amped up and he can't stop a beach ball.

100%. It’s a short tournament and Helle hasn’t proven shit in playoffs. It’s not crazy to believe he will crack under pressure yet again.

 

[Troy McClure]

Ok, Nill. Here's your big game to hunt.
