Who the heck would trade Klingberg? Ottawa would want more compensation plsu who knows if Hanzal waives, probably not

Do you watch the Stars often?

No, but i still wouldnt trade one of the top offensive defencemans. Just find him a solid defensive defenceman.

Honestly, he is 3-4 Dman not a #1. The only positive to John Klingberg is his cap hit.

Trading Klingberg is probably the worst idea I've ever heard. I watch every Stars game. You're not watching the same thing I am. He's an elite defenseman. He's worth more than Ristolainen.

Uh do you watch the Stars often? Better yet, do you watch the Sabres often? Jesus you really think Risto is better than Klingberg? My god that's one of the worst takes I've ever heard. Clearly coming from someone that's never seen Ristolainen play and doesn't appreciate the fact that we have one of the most talented and best offensive dmen in the league on a dirt cheap contract. Idk how anyone can watch the Stars and see Klingberg as the issue. That's just terrible. And on top of that we pay them even more. Jesus christ that's bad. You'd hate Ristolainen within a week. His defensive play is terrible, yes, even worse than Klingberg's and he is maybe half the player Klingberg is offensively. Just a terrible proposal

I actually watch every stars game and I think watching Klingberg play with the puck in his own end like a hand grenade is painful to watch. Did he help the PP when he came back from injury? Yeah, but that came and went pretty fast. Maybe Ristolainen is not the best hockey trade to make, but if Klingberg is your #1 D-Man then you're going to continue to miss the playoffs. Oh and if you make the playoffs, every team is going to dump the puck in his corner and pressure him and at that point all he does is make mistake after mistake. Like I said, the only thing good about him is his cap hit. He is a 3-4 Dman on a good team.

Maybe Risto is'nt the best hockey trade to make. But to call him an elite defensman when he is the third best defensman on his team is asinine.

Wow this is the dumbest **** I’ve heard on this website please deactivate

Take your Klingberg jersey off and stop being a homer. You know your hockey and you're taking Klingberg over Lindell and Heiskenen? Cap hit aside!

I don’t even own a Klingberg jersey. And yes I’m taking him over both of them. 60-70 point RHDman don’t grow on trees
