Friedmanin 32 Thoughts blogista poimitut Dallasiin liittyvät spekuloinnit:
Patrick Kane:" I think Edmonton’s interested, and has reached out. I think Dallas has considered it. I’ve wondered about Vegas, and my belief is Toronto wants to know whether or not its actually in the mix before considering anything. As one GM said Wednesday, “If Patrick Kane is interested you, you have to think about it.” This is a complicated deal, and I’m not sure how much longer anyone is willing to wait. You don’t want to be the abandoned bride at the altar."
Tyler Bertuzzi: "Same goes for Tyler Bertuzzi, who Holland drafted in Detroit. As Jeff Marek reported, Dallas and Tampa Bay are there, as well. The Stars are searching for another scorer."
Timo Meier: "At least two teams — Carolina and New Jersey — are pushing on Timo Meier. Undoubtedly, there are more. Toronto’s checked-in, everyone’s wondering about Vegas, and one coach said Peter DeBoer’s knowledge from San Jose makes Dallas a factor, although I’ve got no idea if the Stars could do it. (I wonder about Boston. It’s an all-in year for the Bruins, but how much do you want to toy with such a special mix?) "
JVR: "James van Riemsdyk's interest appears to include Dallas, Minnesota, Vegas and Winnipeg. I don’t believe Philadelphia has any real desire to move Travis Konecny unless it’s a whopper of an offer. The Flyers are looking, however, for centres."
Koko blogi:
Itseäni noista mainituista hyökkääjistä kiinnostaisi Bertuzzi kyllä eniten, sillä en halua nähdä Jim Nillin maksavan "äärimmäisyyksiä" Timo Meieristä yhden kevään ajalta. Kane tai JVR ei muuten vaan nappaa. :D

Kerrottakoon vielä, että Stars lähettti eilen Marian Studenicin farmiin hyvin todennäköisesti palkkakatto syistä. Ellei sitten Kiviranta lähene jo pelikuntoa.
