Sounds like negotiating rights for Alex Goligoski on the move to Arizona.

Elliotte Friedman @FriedgeHNIC
ARIZ is acquiring the negotiation rights to UFA D Alex Goligoski from DAL. @CraigCustance was first to sniff it out.

That Dallas defense isn't looking pretty.

Arizona Coyotes General Manager John Chayka announced today that the Coyotes have acquired the negotiating rights to pending free agent defenseman Alex Goligoski from the Dallas Stars in exchange for a fifth round draft choice in the 2016 NHL Entry Draft. The Coyotes can negotiate with Goligoski until July 1. If a new contract isn't reached with Goligoski before that date, the 30-year-old defenseman would become an unrestricted free agent.

That was the scuttlebutt late in the season.

So not an immediate signing.

Bob McKenzie @TSNBobMcKenzie
ARI doesn't have a contract in place for Goligoski but plans to bring the player into ARI and sell him on the Coyotes.

I don't think "making room" is right, they easily had room for both as their blueline is their major weakness.

Stars Beat writer says Stars will not make offers to Russell or Demers in light of this trade

Mike Heika @MikeHeika
No. Guess is they will not make offers to Russell or Demers. Could look at trade or UFA. Seems they will be patient.

Interesting. Maybe a Wideman destination?

Seems crazy

Leaves Klingberg, Oduya, Johns, & Nemeth signed for next season.

Thought the discussion was that they wanted to bring one of the 3 (Russell, Demers, Goligoski) back to the organization. Big hole to fill if they let all 3 walk.

Bad weekend? I'd love to be in a hockey rink when it's 120+ out.

Hey, Russell played pretty well for them. If the Stars love our former defensemen so much, we have a mint-condition Wideman ripe for the taking.

It's a bit crazy, but 50% Wideman for 50% Lehtonen? Not a superb goalie, but can be a backup at that rate.

What is the point of both team's retaining salary?
