Quote from: herman on December 15, 2021, 10:30:15 AMI think we (and the other team) are at a good spot now to manifest this:Toronto lands John Klingberg in blockbuster trade a month ahead of the deadlineNick Robertson joins his brother as Dallas retools for their futureWith his team within striking distance of the President's Trophy, Kyle Dubas doubled down on his belief in his core late last night with a blockbuster deal to acquire top defenseman and pending UFA John Klingberg from the Dallas Stars for up and coming sniper Nick Robertson, Justin Holl, Brennan Menell, and a 2023 top-10 protected 1st Rd pick. Toronto also acquires Dallas' 3rd rd pick in 2022, and Toronto-native Wyatt Johnson in the transaction. No salary is retained on this deal as Dubas had previously cleared the space, sending Nick Ritchie back to Anaheim for a 5th rd pick.Haha Wyatt Johnson is a guy that's 26 years old playing in University. Wyatt Johnston plays for Windsor.

Dallas including one of their top prospects in Wyatt Johnston kinda throws off the value here. I really don't see why they'd do that.
If we're going to give up that kind of value, I'd rather target someone like Chychrun who will at least be here for a couple years.

David Pagnotta on NHL Network reports John Klingberg has asked for a trade from the Dallas Stars. “This is not something that has occurred recently, this had been going on for a little while, presumably when contract talks hit a wall and there wasn’t any remedying.” #TexasHockey— NHL News (@PuckReportNHL) January 7, 2022

No update. Klingberg is looking for 8 years in the neighbourhood of $63 and Dallas isn't there.— Jeff Marek (@JeffMarek) January 2, 2022

Klingberg, Future Cup Champ?Despite Klingberg’s two-year slump, I still think he has the game to be a difference-maker on a strong team. At a $4.25M cap hit on an expiring contract, Klingberg may well be the missing piece to put a contender over the top.Is your team deep on talented Fs and left-handed Ds, but thin at RD?Are you looking for a top-end PP1 point man?Is your system predicated on stretching the ice east-west (on offense) and killing plays early in the NZ (on defense)?Do you habitually swarm 2v1 to stop the cycle and recover the puck in DZ coverage?If you’ve answered yes to all of these questions, then:1. You have a pretty good team2. Klingberg is the man for you

I'm hoping he flies a bit under the radar, as a lot of the early focus seems to be on Manson, Subban, Ristolainen and Chiarot for some reason, but my guess is Klingberg would still go for a first round pick.Still, I think he would be a very good addition, and his underlying numbers are very good. Less of what the Leafs need, but still an interesting acquisition would be Colin Miller from Buffalo for some depth.
