The Dallas Stars announced today that they had traded defenseman Jamie Oleksiak for a conditional fourth round pick in the 2019 draft from the Pittsburgh Penguins. The condition is based on both the finishes of the Penguins and the Minnesota Wild, as Pittsburgh has both of those fourth round picks in the draft. Dallas will receive whichever pick is earlier, so it’ll be a season before we know what pick number that ends up being.
This move comes in the wake of news earlier this week that Marc Methot is getting healthier and close to a return.
