Andersson, Coleman(salary retained) and a 2nd, with another team helping with the retention on Andersson for this year, probably a 3rd or 4th round pick coming from Calgary to help with retention. It does save Dallas about 4 million as well, more options for them at the 2026 trade deadline
There are going to be some sad people here when the final return on whatever trade happens is realized. The expectations here are a long way out of line. I’m not sure Dallas gives up Bischel straight up for Andersson even, add in Coleman and you might get Bourque added. There is no scenario where we get Johnston as a return with Andersson as the base. Would require adding Zary and maybe our 1st. Johnston has 2 30 goal seasons and just turned 22, zero chance Dallas moves him.
