Tampa Bay Lightning - Dallas Stars

to Tampa Bay Lightning: Vlad (The Clutch) Namestnikov (60)
to Dallas Stars: Ryan Stoa (79) + Nando Eggenberger (80)
Cap saving mission continues.
Namestnikov was suprisingly good even in his limited role as a 3C here in Dallas, but he was very good down the stretch and especially in the play-offs, getting that Stanley Cup final winning goal, but he needs more ice time to thrive more and he can be a good top-six C in Tampa. He deserves this.
And cap world is merciless and therefore I have to do some adjustments and this deal helps me to keep my younger core together going forward. Stoa is still servicable, despite his age and should complement my team well. Eggenberger has a cool name and he's actually not a bad hockey player.
Thanks Geoff and best of luck.
Pleasure.
