John Klingberg

[27Blue]

here's a guy who doesn't get enough talk around here... dallas needs defense and someone to run their PP (don't say goligoski) and this could be their guy in a year or two. sami vatanen 2.0.

Thanks for the notification. Until he proves something in the NHL (or AHL) keep expectations tempered.

Thanks for the link. I'm intrigued by what Trevor Daley might do if given a shot. He did some things in the final quarter of the season.

I am also wondering if Dillon might get some PP time. OK maybe more hoping he does but I think there is some intriguing potential there, not so much for PP QB but a complementary guy. And yeah, Klingberg is interesting; I'll follow his progression.

[The Hockey Hitman]

Yeah Klingberg has been on my radar for only about 6 to 8 months now, but everything I know about him sounds promising. Definitely a player to watch.

[27Blue]

10 games in Texas (AHL) with 4 goals and 8 assists... a good start to the N.A. game, offensively at least.

Recalled by the Stars and could play Tuesday.

To be honest, Dallas needs someone to run the point on their PP. Daley has been a great surprise, but I can't see him sustaining this type of production all season. Goligoski has been disappointing, which isn't really a huge surprise, but I definitely think Klingberg should be on dynasty manager's radars.

First NHL point. Could have a few more by now. Keeper leaguers, your window is closing.

Yeah, agreed. I've watched every one of the games he's played and he's consistently been the Stars' best dman. Both offensively and defensively. Extremely impressed.

Klingberg over Enstrom?

[Instant Karma]

i wouldn't be quick to write Daley off. I think most of his problems were mental and he seems to have gotten past that. He's still one of the best if not the best skaters on the team.

Grabbed him when he hit the scoresheet. Daley or not, he is getting big minutes.

[Big Ev]

from what i remember, he was basically David Rundblad whereas he couldn't play the position in his own zone. Curious if that's changed.

[27Blue]

Obviously. But it hasn't been a concern for a while now. The Stars were gushing about him last training-camp (2013) and said he was ready to join the team even then. Very smart player. Could stand to put on a few pounds, but he is always a step ahead of the play, so he doesn't get into much trouble out there.

The Stars gushed about a lot of guys this year
