It's January 30th for the Dallas Stars. Let's get into it. Follow and subscribe for more team news every day. Sportsnet insider Elliot Friedman says a trade sending Artemy Panarin to the Dallas Stars looks unlikely right now. The Stars have been linked to the New York Rangers star, nicknamed the Breadman, but the team is shifting its focus elsewhere as the trade deadline nears.
Earlier reports suggested Panarin might go as a rental player, with Dallas as one of his top choices. But Friedman shared on his 32 Thoughts podcast that Panarin prefers a deal to a team ready to offer an extension since he does not want to.
Chapter 2: Why is a trade for Artemi Panarin to the Dallas Stars considered unlikely?
Move twice in one offseason. Fans and analysts have mixed reactions, with some star supporters holding out hope for a blockbuster. Still, conflicting rumors have everyone taking these updates with a grain of salt, as Friedman himself pointed out. The Stars are prioritizing re-signing their own restricted free agent, Jason Robertson, before chasing big names.
They also have concerns about their prospect pool and what to hold on to their first-round draft pick. That rules out major deadline splashes for Dallas, but they could still target smaller upgrades like Calgary's Blake Coleman or Nick Robertson from. Toronto, keep an eye on how this all plays out.
