Welcome to Dallas Stars News Today. Two minutes of updates that matter to Dallas Stars fans. Hit subscribe and stay connected. The Dallas Stars made a key move before the NHL trade deadline by picking up defenseman Tyler Myers from the Vancouver Canucks. They sent over a second-round pick in 2027 and a fourth-rounder in 2029. Vancouver kept half of his $3 million salary, so Dallas only takes on a $1.5 million cap hit for this season and next. Myers brings plenty of size and experience at 6 feet 6 inches and right shot at age 36 in his 17th pro season.
What major trade did the Dallas Stars make before the NHL deadline?
The Stars wanted more depth on defense and flexibility heading into the playoffs, especially with a possible clash against division foes. This comes right after the Minnesota Wild added center depth of their own, grabbing Michael McCarron. Officials there are still hunting for a top center, with names like Vincent Trocek from the New York Rangers in the mix. Several teams are now open to deals as sellers. Florida Panthers, fresh off three stray regulation losses, signed a backup goalie and have pending free agents who could move. Toronto Maple Leafs are close to shipping out a few players as their playoff streak looks done. Meanwhile, the San Jose Sharks decided to keep winger Kiefer Sherwood with a five-year extension worth $28.75 million.
After getting him from Vancouver last month, deadline hits Friday, so expect more action. Appreciation to our sponsor for backing this episode. It is a pillow that plays your podcast and music without earbuds, built for listening in bed. S-O-L-I. Solipillow.com.
