1. Describe this trade in NBA terms

2. He's got nothing else.

3. Carolina gave up Necas, Drury, 2025 2nd, 2026 4th and got back Taylor Hall (retained), Stankoven, 2026 1st (DAL), 2027 1st (DAL), 2026 3rd (DAL), 2028 3rd (DAL). With Necas not wanting to re-sign, surely that's a heck of a haul, right?

4. Praying Colorado jumps Minnesota so we get the match up we all want in the central now first round

5. Can't believe I finally have to take this Stars team seriously. They've been such an overrated weak bunch of waterbugs for so long… but they certainly did mix it up in the last 48 hrs

6. Logan Stankoven could be a really great player but he might also become Kailer Yamamoto…to give only him up along with draft picks is absolutely mind-blowing 🤯as a Dallas fan. I was thinking if they could get a big forward to play alongside Wyatt Johnson that would be incredible. Didn't honestly think this trade was a possibility. Maybe tomorrow here in the US I'll wake up tmr and we suddenly have a normal President. I would take Bush 41 in a heartbeat.

7. If Stars and Avs meet in the 1st round its gonna be FUN!

8. What not Toronto?

9. Also why do these guys think that having finns on the team in Texas is somehow going to do anything for chemistry? News flash: Carolina also has a bunch of finns, Aho being one of Rantanens best friends. Clearly that didn't do anything for the locker room.

10. 8×12=96

11. Stupid trade by Carolina- they created a monster in the west now. I thought Carolina considered themselves a contender… I guess not. Mikko did the Avs dirty by signing basically the same deal he refused from the Avs lol.

12. 8×12? This is great news for the leafs, as Mikko is a much better player than Marner

    So Marner gets 8×11.95? Perfect

13. The Stars don't need more scorers , they need defense especially if Miro and Nils aren't coming back soon.

14. HELL YEA

15. So Dallas has a super team when healthy 😂 and they keep Wyatt Johnston with a long term contract

16. Evidently Carolina didn’t have a McKinnon type player to boost Rantenans stats.

17. At this point the Stars need an alternate SUOMI sweater.

18. Dallas still has an iffy back end. Mikko won't help that.

    But, Carolina should fire their front office today, before quitting time. They lost Necces and Drury for Stankhoven. (Draft picks are always a crap shoot) They obviously didn't consider themselves to be Cup contenders at all. They basically decided to throw in the towel and re-tool…

    Imagine Rod Brind'Amour going into the locker room and trying to convince the team they can win the Cup, when the front office clearly doesn't believe it.

19. How they sign Robertson, or Wyatt, or Heiskanen, and Oettinger? I guess Benn, Seguin, Duchene are out the door. Benn, and Seguin been long time pillars of team.

20. Go Avs!!!

21. Fire nico

22. Ya they get mikko but Dallas stays the same. I don’t think they progress any further in playoffs than before.

23. I'm 80% sure his agent is to blame for circus because Mikko is a loyal guy

24. 8 x 12….Just over 100

    And no one corrected this idiot

25. Hurricanes are a clown show.

26. Congrats Dallas, Finnish mafi is growing. And Hintz the 6 games❤ cup is comming for sure.

27. Dallas is now a cheat code. My pick to go to the finals.

28. 8 x 12 is not over 100

29. 0:24 bro cannot do math 😂

30. I’m sure Colorado would not want to trade Mikko within their own division and yet that is exactly what happened in a round about way.

31. "8 x 12 I guess would be just over 100 million in total" well wtf is that math over there…

32. Darn you, Dallas Stars 🌟! 😤

33. Stars gonna ROLL!!! 🔥

34. Dallas PP1 could be… Robertson-Hintz-Rantanen-Heiskanen-Granlund! 💙🤍
