Why Dallas Stars Should Consider Rebuilding

 The Dallas Stars are an aging team, and with the injuries to Seguin and Bishop, the Stars should consider rebuilding. The Stars would benefit in the long run if they were to move some of the older veteran players for some picks and prospects.

At the trade deadline, the Dallas Stars make a few trades:

Dallas Stars trade Ben Bishop to the St.Louis Blues for Jordan Kyrou, and a 2022 2nd round pick. 

Ben Bishop is a great goalie when healthy but with Khudobin and Oettinger on board, the Stars no longer need Bishop.

The Stars also trade Alex Radulov to the Detroit Red Wings for Vladislav Namestnikov, 2021 2nd round pick (from NYR), and a 2nd round pick (from EDM).

The Red Wings acquire a marquee player to bolster their lineup for Vladislav Namestnikov and two 2nd round picks.


The Dallas Stars finish the 2020-21 season with the 12th worst record in the league but end up with the 3rd pick in the draft.


Before the 2021 draft, the Dallas Stars make one major trade:

Dallas Stars trade Joe Pavelski, Jamie Oleksiak to the Florida Panthers for Frank Vatrano, Eetu Luostarinen, Radko Gudas, and a 2021 1st round pick.

The Panthers get Joe Pavelski, a star forward, and a solid defenseman in Jamie Oleksiak to help bolster their roster.

The Dallas Stars finish the 2022-23 season with a much better record; they end up with the 13th pick in the draft.


Before the 2023 Draft, the Dallas Stars trade Tyler Seguin to the San Jose Sharks for Timo Meier, and a 2023 1st round pick.

The Sharks get Tyler Seguin, a bonafide 1st line Center, while the Stars get Timo Meier and a 1st round pick.

2024 Offseason Preview ft. New Jersey Devils

The New Jersey Devils the playoffs in the 2023-24 season after making it into the second round of the playoffs last season, and finished the season with a total of 81 points, a 38-39-5 record; With Jack Hughes and Nico Hischier in the midst of their primes, the New Jersey Devils really need to start to buckle down and put together the pieces for a contending team.

Moving forward the Blues' primary goals should be trying to unload their bad contracts to gain picks and cap space and retool through the draft.  St. Louis has 8 draft picks in the 2024 NHL draft, this is who they should select. 2024 NHL Draft: 16-Michael Hage (C) 48-Spencer Gill (D) 56-Carson Wetsch (RW) 81-Timur Kol (D) 94-Hagen Burrows (LW) 113-Felix Lacerte (C) 145-Dawson Cowan (G) 209-Jan Golcic (D) 211-Maxim Velikov (RW) Though no big names jump out at you, this group of prospects is pretty solid and could play a vital role on the team a few years down the road. Retooling the Prospect pool is a long process, but the cr...
