Dallas Stars acquire defenseman Connor Murphy from the Chicago Blackhawks in a huge trade proposal
The Blackhawks could offload veteran talent like Connor Murphy, and he'd get a shot at pursuing a Stanley Cup title for the first time in his career.
While the Blackhawks would get forward Jason Robertson, who has one year left on his $7.75 million AAV contract and is a pending RFA.
The Blackhawks would send forward Lukas Reichel to Dallas in return as well, as he could utilize a fresh start on a team that could give Reichel a second shot in the NHL.

The Chicago Blackhawks Acquire 80-Point Forward
The Chicago Blackhawks would receive Jason Robertson in return for Connor Murphy, Lukas Reichel, a 1st-round draft pick, and two second-round picks in 2026.
Robertson scored 80 points (35-45) last season in the NHL with the Stars and would score 6 points (4-2) in 10 playoff games.
The Stars would receive veteran defenseman Connor Murphy, who's been a fixture in the team's top four and has been a reliable blue liner who doesn't have a lot of offensive upside but is a physical player.
