The Pittsburgh Penguins picked up a solid, veteran defenseman on Thursday. They traded with the Dallas Stars to acquire Matt Dumba. According to NHL insider Elliotte Friedman, Pittsburgh sent Vladislav Kolyachonok to the Stars. The Penguins also got a 2028 second-round pick in the deal.
The Dallas Stars face crucial offseason decisions to maintain competitiveness, potentially parting ways with underperforming veterans. Matt Dumba's defensive impact fell short of expectations, while Ilya Lyubushkin's limited presence may not justify his roster spot.
