DALLAS DEALS FOR NAMESTNIKOV
The Dallas Stars acquired forward Vladislav Namestnikov from the Detroit Red Wings for a fourth-round draft pick in 2024.
What does it give the Dallas Stars
In Namestnikov, the Stars add a solid and versatile forward who should be a welcome addition to a club aspiring to sneak into the playoffs out West.
What does it give the Detroit Red Wings
The Red Wings have little chance of making the playoffs this season, so it is good business to sell off pending unrestricted free agents for future assets.
Fantasy impact
Namestnikov is going to play an important role in Dallas, potentially. He may be worth a pickup in deeper leagues.
