2024-25 General Dallas Stars Talk

Adding Jones to the top 4 solidifies this team as a serious contender for me. We are missing one piece in the top 4.. and we will never win a Cup with Heiskanen pushing 30 mins a night and Harley pushing 28 mins a night every playoff game you need fresh players and smart minutes to win the entire thing. What the coaching staff did last year was an embarrassment.
 
No, this is the target.



Dobson is a guy you throw real trade assets at and then offer him a low ball 8 year deal, which he'll take because hockey players are idiots.

Dobson is obviously better, but NYI wants to improve their offence now whereas CHI would want future assets. Maybe you could try and convince them to want a younger forward like Stankoven as the piece. Dobson would be ideal, Jones seems more realistic for what Dallas has to trade right now
 
I'd prefer Karlsson to either, still

Best player and offers the most flexibility contract wise

Any of those three would be amazing adds, but I have a difficult time seeing Nill pull the trigger even though I think it'd possibly be the single most important move of his tenure here

Of those 3 names above. I feel Jones is the most attainable while not requiring to give up Bourque or Stankoven.

If that's the case, would prefer him over Dobson.

Jones would be very impactful paired with Heiskanen
 
I mean for Dobson, I have zero issue giving up Bourque or Stank.
Plus we'd be trading one of them out of the conference at least. Also Dobson is only 25, so assuming we sign him long term (which could get crazy if he wants $10m+/yr) we'd be set for a long time. He can also run the PP if we need him to. But damn, we've been looking for a #1RD since Klingberg fell apart. The real issue is which one do we trade, Bourque or Stankoven? That's a really tough call right now and I think we'll all be upset either way
