Rumor: Hurricanes interested in Klingberg

[Roman Yoshi]

They need a guy like Backlund to really put them over the top. Their D is fine, but Backlund + Mackey for Necas?

I don't even know how to respond to this...

With nills job likely on the line , he has full pressure to win now . Trading klingberg doesn’t help the stars win now unless a good roster player is coming back . Canes probably aren’t gonna send one of there you g forwards back so it’s hard to see this happening .

The main thing that's going to impede a potential deal is that the Stars are playing a lot better and are probably back in the playoff picture.

Klinger for Aho?

Tough to say I guess.. he's an upcoming UFA and his point totals have dipped the past few years and turns 30 next year.

I'd have to look at previous years trades that would be comparable to see what the returns were for a UFA/ potential rental

Would definately be smart for Dallas to move him though IMO and get anything in return cause I'd imagine they won't wanna re sign him in the offseason

Dipped seems a little misleading. He is not on a decline. Slow start to this year but so has every other star. His defense is very underrated. But his real skill set is walking that blue line making plays. As someone who watches him a ton and still hopeful Dallas signs him as he is by far their best playmaker on the blue line klingberg will get a haul if traded rental or not. Dallas’ system suppresses offense as well. He is a RHD who can be your PP1 QB.

Probably need to take this to the Islanders board.

If only Carolina had a 1st and a 3rd...

Islanders would probably say yes.

Why? So we could use it on someone like Dvorak?

Yes. Four game winning streak and 7-3 in the last 10. They have the pieces needed to be a tough opponent against anyone in the playoffs. I'm pretty confident Klingberg will stay in Dallas until the summer.

 

[JKG33]

Is the 4th peroxide a reputable source?

Alone no, but Friedman/Marek said it on intermission last night

Our shit management ain't no good example.

Wrong Aho..lol

 

[Nikishin Go Boom]

Wrong Aho..lol

Cant be referring about the other one in a deal for Klingberg so, im pretty sure he is talking about the right one.

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

Wrong Aho..lol

No, not if you are suggesting (even sarcastically) a rental in Klingberg for an Aho. LOL

 

[Unsustainable]

This would have made sense prior to Bear and TDA. Not sure about now

 

[Dr Pepper]

Wonder what they'd offer up for him.

 

[StreetHawk]

Klingberg doesn’t have any trade protection so not as if Dallas has to trade him to Carolina or a select group of teams. So no lowball offers will cut it.

As a Stars fan, I would certainly hope not.
