[Money Baer]

Wow!

Chiasson? 1st 2015? etc.

Edit: I guess Chiasson isn't a prospect... I'll go with Ritchie + Oleksiak

[dammage79]

Hell of a landing point for Spezza.

[Muta]

If true, Spezza and Seguin down the middle is sick.

Do the Stars have substantial prospects outside of Nichuskin who isn't going anywhere?

Will be interesting to see the return.

Stars-Senators have agreed to Spezza deal. Awaiting trade call for confirmation. I'm hearing three forwards and a draft pick.

[JiriHrdina]

Chiasson, Ritchie, Dickinson? or Faksa in there?

[Skaloper]

Hell of a deal by the Stars.

[19Yzerman19]

Not really understanding the fit, but okay.

Some - but if they are trading 3 of them they will be gutting their pipeline to get Spezza.
Interesting decision given how many strong contenders the West already has. Even with Spezza are the Stars better than:
Kings -nope
Hawks - nope
Blues - maybe on par at best
Oilers - nope
Ducks - nope

So they take a huge swing when they are in a group of half a dozen that are all strong contenders. Not sure that is smart.

Possibly Cambell or Oleksiak. I'm guessing it will be a couple young roster players, a prospect and a 2nd

Edit: ignore me, it says 3 forwards

I would have thought one of those guys would be included but reports are 3 forwards.

[PeteMoss]

Running and gunning stars... That would be two centres without the greatest defensive reps.

Boy that's just a big pile of random stuff for Spezza. Chiasson is the only good piece there.

Not a good day to be a Sens fan.

[Street Pharmacist]

The stars will be so mad when the find out they got the wrong Karlsson

What a whole bunch of meh.

Good deal for Dallas.

[Wood]

That's a good deal for Dallas, keeping their 1st is big. Chaisson is a nice piece for the Sens

[Resolute 14]

So much for the brilliance of Bryan Murray's rebuild. I think most of us got fooled on that one!
