Free Agent Friday: The top Defenseman the Dallas Stars should be in on this summer!

On today's episode of Locked On Stars, we dive into a full offseason outlook for the Dallas Stars! Joey begins by laying out the notable unrestricted and restricted free agents the Stars currently have on their roster and how much cap space they have. We then give reasons to why or why not resign each player and which ones General Manager Jim Nill should prioritize when July 1st hits. The two most important in our eyes is Chris Tanev and Thomas Harley, key cornerstones on defense at drastically different points in their careers, but very impactful for your immediate success in the near future and long term. In the second segment, Joey believes in the importance for Dallas to add size and physicality to the roster to fill in spots around skilled players such as Wyatt Johnston, Logan Stankoven, Roope Hintz and more. He thinks the Stars need to stay away from skilled wingers in free agency that may bring scoring during the regular season, but fizzle out deep in a playoff run like we saw this season. In the final segment, we take a quick look at the 2024 NHL Draft and the amount of picks Dallas has and what needs they could be looking to fill this year.
