Dallas Stars’ Three Players Who Could Possibly Be Traded

The Dallas Stars are a little over a month away from facing another offseason on their path to building a Stanley Cup caliber team.

The main question building up to July 1st is whether the Stars will be making noise or sitting back and watching.

Since Jim Nill arrived as the new GM of the Dallas Stars in April of 2013, the Stars have faced two offseason opportunities. Nill has made big moves in both opportunities. In 2013, he snagged Tyler Seguin, Rich Peverley, and Ryan Button for Loui Eriksson, Reilly Smith, and prospects. In 2014, he snagged Jason Spezza and a prospect for rookie Alex Chiasson and prospects.

So, as the 2015 offseason approaches, it’s up in the air whether or not the Stars will aim for a big move or not.

On one side, the Stars could use a top four defenseman and possibly need a qualified backup goalie who can bring consistency to the department should Jhonas Enroth leave. But on the other hand, the Stars proved from March 1st to the end of the season on April 11th that the team they have now could make a deep playoff run. All they need is a faster start to the season.

Whatever ends up happening, let’s take a look at the three players who, should Nill make a trade, would possibly be at the top of his list to deal. Now this in no way means that these are his go-to players to trade, but are simply players that have a favorable scenario that would draw a team to trade for them.
