To Pittsburgh Penguins:
2nd round pick LA 2027
To Dallas Stars:
Drew Helleson (88)
I could use a bottom pairing defensive defenseman and Helleson fits the bill.

PIT agrees. This was not the plan, I did like Helleson on my bottom pair quite a lot, but then I got Guhle on waivers. Between the two, Helleson is ready now and Guhle will take some development, but Guhle is a little more physical and has an extra year at 1.25 where Helleson will cost more next season. Ultimately I'm okay with running either one out there, so we'll take it as basically finding a 2nd from the waiver claim.
Should be back compliant with the contract limit & cap now.
