Are there any No. 1 defensemen available for Stars to pursue? Keep an eye on Oliver Ekman-Larsson

Mike Heika, Stars beat writer for SportsDayDFW.com and The Dallas Morning News, answered your questions about the team in a live chat recently. Here are some highlights:

Last year the P.K. Subban trade came out of nowhere. Do you think there are any other No. 1 defensemen who could be on the market that Dallas could pursue?

Heika: The one guy I would be watching is Oliver Ekman-Larsson in Arizona. He is 25 and can become an unrestricted free agent in two seasons. There is a very good chance he doesn't want to re-sign with the Coyotes because the rebuild could be too long and difficult.
