John Nyberg Joins The Dallas Stars, Stephen Johns Could Be Out

John Nyberg, only 20 years old, just finished a full season with the Swedish Hockey League (SHL). In 49 games he posted 7 goals and 8 assists. He’s a two-way defensive player that likes to be on the offensive attack. He could be a good addition to the Dallas Stars this coming season.

Nyberg Replacing Johns

I believe signing Nyberg means the Dallas Stars are going to leave Stephen Johns unprotected in the 2017 Expansion Draft. Nyberg is 6’3″ 203 lbs which is just a bit smaller than Stephen Johns. And Johns only had 3 goals and 6 assists in 61 games with the Stars this year .
