If there's a swap, we won't be the ones adding.

Don't see the point in taking Mascherin. He's not NHL ready and also not waiver exempt, so they'd ultimately just lose him for free.

It'll likely be either Comeau or Point.

I agree. Going back and forth of what SEA will do. Stars did a good job of not giving them many options.

What did you have in mind?

Depending on their extensions, I'd rather just keep Klingberg.

Following the remarks from Klingberg's exit interview to the rumors today, I don't see Klingberg in a Stars jersey much longer. Just my personal opinion.

Like I said it depends on their extensions.

What did he say exactly?

“Sit down with Jim and my agent see where we are at, emotional for sure, uh, can’t really control what happens… flat cap, expansion draft, its different times. Ever since I came into league, I’ve been a Dallas Star and that’s what I want to be as well, but it also has to be the right fit for me and my family and the organization so take it day by day and see where we are at.”

His answer is at about the 3 minute mark of this video - https://www.nhl.com/stars/video/exit-interview-john-klingberg/t-277437402/c-8328400.

He obviously learned from Nill: « …see where we’re at » 😀

I got the impression that he was going for as much money as he can get, wherever that is.

He gave the standard answer, by saying nothing. But what else would expect him to say? As of right now, there are going to be some very good UFA Dmen available in summer of 2022.
