Rumor: Dhaliwal- Hearing that Jason Robertson has been made available for trade by the Stars

[Breakers]

Who is Dhaliwal ?? Never heard of him

He sucks at rumors

is maybe the best insider at breaking signings and free agency, who was in on who, and dollar amounts.

Dreger, friedman, Johnston all retweet his stuff in regards to free agency

but his rumors are straight garbage

 

[JohanFranzenstein]

CapWages and Puckpedia both have him expiring RFA, and with him still being 26 on July 1st and only completing 6 seasons by that time, I believe that's accurate.

That is my mistake.

 

[Pizza!Pizza!]

Benn is a UFA

I am record at hating Jamie Benn for many years. they should trade him to an ECHL team the day before free agency just to get revenge for all of their cap space he wasted for so long.

 

[SnizzNasty88]

Could see this being for Dobson if true. Fills needs for both teams. Makes too much sense.

The league will be better when that piece of shit is no longer around.

He's really the only reason I find to not root for Dallas. I'd be OK with them winning a Cup when he's gone, but I think I'd puke if he touched it.

 

[ManofSteel55]

Dallas made Rantanen the priority. And I dont blame them, I'd rather pay him $12m than Robertson $10m+

Gotta think this'll be a deal for a top pairing RD

This was my thought too. With that awful blueline, you'd think this means Robertson is being made available for a defenseman.

 

[North]

LMAO, why do Oiler fans love claiming to this idea?

Congrats, you ended Calgary and forced them to destroy their roster and trade Mathew Tkachuk to Florida who wiped the floor with you in the Cup Finals last year.

Wiped the floor? Hmm okay.

Relax it’s just a joke. Nobody honestly believes the Oilers caused the dismantling of these teams.

 

[BKarchitect]

Noah Dobson?

The first and only asset listed so far in this thread that would start a conversation.

 

[EveryDay]

Could see this being for Dobson if true. Fills needs for both teams. Makes too much sense.

Not really, Dallas are trying to shed salary and Dobson is going to cost more then Robertson next season.

 

[Three On Zero]

Dhaliwal and reliable together… needed a good laugh today.

 

[BKarchitect]

I don’t think this should really surprise people. A hockey trade for a top 2-3 defender or a different style of top 6 forward would bolster Dallas significantly.

Bowen Byram?

They need a top 4 RHD. They have Harley, Lindell and Bichsel on the left. Not to mention Heiskinen is a left hand shot.

 

[Skinnyjimmy08]

I honestly think that’s a great decision by Stars if they do this

 

[wonton15]

Yeah that was just the first name that popped in my head because he can also play right side.

Dobson would be a good fit.

 

[JKG33]

Not really, Dallas are trying to shed salary and Dobson is going to cost more then Robertson next season.

Is it shedding salary or re-alocating salary (and assets)?

If shedding were the only goal, thats easily accomplished with Dumba and Marchment

Rasmus. Andersson.

Not sure why everyone is hating on this guy. He’s 100% accurate. Stars fans have already known about this. We’ve already been discussing potential trade scenarios

 

[Colezuki]

Rasmus. Andersson.

Not enough

People should also realize that he's probably hearing this from someone at the Canucks org. So it's not like he's throwing out something strictly regarding the Stars.

 

[FriendlyGhost92]

Nobody said it had to be a 1 for 1.

 

[Nikolajs Sillers]

Would love him on the Sabres. Byram? Somebody else ?

More likely is Dhaliwal is hearing this from Pat Brison. Brison putting it out there so that a team willing to pay Robertson big money next year, steps up and trades for Robertson now. I'm sure Robertson and Brison want to sign that huge extension this summer so they want to be with the right team asap.

 

[Nevins]

What Dallas wants in return?

 

[UrbanImpact]

Stars might have the best LD core in the NHL with Heiskanen, Harley and Lindell. The heck are they gonna do with Byram

 

[Sendhelp2Anaheim]

What Dallas wants in return?

Looks like a RHD with top pair upside... not a ton of those lying around.

Im sure Anaheim will kick tires on him tho.

He's turned into hot garbage, but we're still going to re-sign him because intangibles or some other immeasurable. unseen quality he allegedly brings to the table.
