2011 NHL Trade Deadline: Trading James Neal Makes Sense For Dallas Stars

We knew it was coming, but I thought that most of the trade talks without a brain when it comes to the Dallas Stars Brad Richards should run.Instead, this morning were hit by a rumor of a major news source that the stars may be discussing a deal that would back James Neal Alex Goligoski Pittsburgh Penguins. As expected, this has put the world Dallas Stars fan in crisis as many believe that Neal exchange for a player like Goligoski is definitely not in favor of the Stars.

I'll leave the merits of this specific trade rumors along, mostly because I think it would be that trade anyway. It is impossible to really judge a trade until it is complete and official.Instead, he wanted to return to something that was a bit surprising to me, the Stars fans feeling that James Neal is an essential element of the team's future and about the "untouchables", and if traded player must produce a much Alex Goligoski more impressive.

The fact is ... James Neal may not be as good as we all hoped it would and there is a good chance that their value will be greater than it is now.
