It’s Free Agent Friday on Locked On Stars! Joey begins the first Free Agent Friday of the offseason by looking at the top available Defensemen in the NHL this summer. Defense should be a top priority for the Stars this summer and if Chris Tanev does not resign with the Stars, Dallas will have to find a way to replenish their core with the hopes of getting over the hump next season. In the first segment, we do a dive on right shot Dylan Demelo who played for the Winnipeg Jets this last season. Demelo is younger and plays a very similar style to Tanev that could be a nice replacement if need be. In the second segment, we take a look at two options under the age of 30 years old. The golden child for Joey this summer would be Brett Pesce of the Carolina Hurricanes, the other possibility is an undersized Alexandre Carrier who grades out as the best defender for the Nashville Predators this season. To finish up the episode, we have some fun and look at some names that most likely the Stars would be out on, but are fun to think about if they did come to Dallas.

Carrier is an interesting idea. I'm thinking we won't do much in the market this year. Tanev, maybe DeMelo or Montour (who will surely re-sign with FLA). Harley must be re-signed, and it's time to start talking contracts with Wyatt and Jake. Duchene wants to stay, was pretty adamant about it, so i'm confident he'll be reasonable and get re-signed. I could even see Pavs re-signing for one more year, just sit him every 4th game to keep him fresh. We don't need 67 points from him. We just need good energy and puck abilities in the playoffs. I don't see a buyout on Suter unless a really good trade comes along that GM Jim can't say no to.
What about Mitch Marner from Toronto 🎉?
Dallas needs 2 solid defencemen. I'm hoping Lundquist gets his game together, but Nill should have a backup plan.
You made it to 3,000 !!
bring back Joe pavs
Can’t win a Stanley cup playing 5 defenseman. Not sure if any of you noticed but they didn’t even play Suter and Petrovic for the entire 3rd period of game 6. They only have 4 defenseman they trust and one of them is a free agent.
