As trade whispers grow louder, new info reveals that any deal involving Jason Robertson would likely bring back a top‑pairing defenseman and premium draft assets to the Dallas Stars.
The Dallas Stars are facing one of the biggest questions of the offseason as speculation about Jason Robertson's future continues to swirl.
With his contract situation looming and teams calling about his availability, new reports suggest that potential trade packages could bring in elite blue-line help, something Dallas badly needs.
According to a recent piece by The Hockey News, the Stars would only consider moving Robertson if they can land cornerstone defensemen and multiple premium assets.

Dallas Stars could demand top defensemen like Rasmus Andersson or Moritz Seider in Jason Robertson trade talks
One scenario gaining traction involves the Calgary Flames sending Rasmus Andersson, a reliable right-shot defenseman, alongside a first-round pick and a high-end prospect.
This would give Dallas a proven top-four defender while freeing cap space for other priorities.
Another proposed package centers around the Detroit Red Wings. Multiple insiders believe Moritz Seider, along with a conditional first-round pick and one of Detroit's top forward prospects, could headline a deal.
This move would instantly bolster the Dallas blue line while providing long-term flexibility, though it would come at the steep cost of losing their leading scorer.
Stars General Manager Jim Nill is expected to let the early part of the season play out before committing to a decision, but these scenarios underline what it would take for Dallas to even consider parting ways with their 26-year-old star.
I think Jim Nill might be forced to explore one of these trades if Robertson pushes for a contract comparable to Mikko Rantanen's $12 million annual deal.
