Eastside's Hockey Elite Collide

To Dallas: Zemgus Girgensons (69)

To New Jersey: Colin White (69)

Getting a bit of an upgrade on Girgensons for $1.8M of cap space. NJ is fine cap-wise for now and has a lot of expiring contracts so the 2-year commitment shouldn't be an issue. The Devils have also had good luck with Colin Whites in the past, and the trade is even in terms of lucky 69 CON players.

I liked White all along but I had to do one more cap saving trade before the season starts so I had to do this decision. Girgensons is cheaper and is also pretty good, he played for the Stars in the past so I know what I'm getting from him. Thank you

When two players you inquired about or were about to are traded for each other... le sad.

Tough business this NHL thing. But hey, never give up man. :)
