Ray Shero has bolstered his Pittsburgh Penguins, sending defenseman Alex Goligoski to the Dallas Stars in exchange for young scorer James Neal and defenseman Matt Niskanen.

I see no way this helps the Stars. Especially if you think, like I do, that Richards is going to walk as free agent. the stars just gave up one of their top young forwards for a mediocre offensive defenseman.

Awful deal.

After this POS deal, the Stars should trade him to the Caps for .50 on the dollar to make it up to the Caps.

One of the most stupid trades I've heard. Even though I hate the Pens, I'll take it, in the middle of this WC playoff race.

Seems like the Stars are punting the season. but why trade Neal who is both young and good? He might be their best two-way player, after Richards (I love Ericsson, but he's not exactly a backchecking machine)

Agree, which is very surprising to me. But again, I'll take it.

I hate James Neal. Which means Dallas was stupid to trade him.

With no functioning owners, I guess Newendyuk knows what he is doing here. What they have done this season is a surprise anyway.

I like Nieuwy, but I don't even understand the logic of this move. Maybe he got hit too hard in the Hertiage Classic old timers game.
