The Anaheim Ducks are reportedly closing in on signing defenseman John Klingberg to a one-year contract.
If a power play quarterback and offensive threat are what you seek, Klingberg is one of the best options you can find. And just like that, the market for available defensemen has thinned considerably. One of the biggest names on the free agent market is finally off the board.
The Anaheim Ducks are close to signing John Klingberg, the top defenceman on the NHL free agent market, a person with knowledge of the negotiations said.
Klingberg's offensive skills and shot-blocking capability would give a boost to the Ducks, who could also use his right-handed shot and puck movement on the power play. His arrival will be another part of a fairly major roster makeover for Anaheim since Pat Verbeek took over as general manager during last season. Klingberg has spent his entire NHL career with the Stars, racking up 71 goals and 303 assists in eight seasons as one of the league's better offensive defencemen.

Most notably for Anaheim, perhaps, is that Klingberg could potentially be a top trade chip at the deadline, should the team not be quite ready to make the playoffs this season. The team already brought in Ryan Strome and Frank Vatrano in free agency, showing that they’re ready to start competing again after adding some top prospects to the mix. Heading to Anaheim is an interesting choice, given what the team already has in place.

Le DG Jim Nill avait aussi indiqué plusieurs fois vouloir conserver les services de Klingberg. Il ajoute également du leadership et de la personnalité à notre équipe.» La saison dernière, il a mené une fois de plus les arrières du club avec 47 points, mais il a maintenu un différentiel de -28, le pire de l’équipe. En séries éliminatoires, il a ajouté une passe en sept matchs.
Klingberg spent the first eight years of his NHL career with the Stars.
Klingberg's 21 points were the sixth most by an NHL defenseman in a single postseason since 1995. The veteran defenseman was originally selected by the Stars in the fifth round (No. 131 overall) of the 2010 NHL Draft. Klingberg ranks fifth in assists (303), eighth in points (374) and ninth in game-winning goals (21) in franchise history. He also adds veteran leadership and character to our team."
In a surprise move, John Klingberg agreed to a one-year contract with the Anaheim Ducks Friday for $7 million.
Verbeek also traded Josh Manson at the trade deadline to the Colorado Avalanche, where he won the Stanley Cup in June over the Lightning. Before signing Klingberg, the Ducks had just under $26 million in cap space and there is still plenty of room to add more free agents for the upcoming season. Dallas drafted Klingberg 131st overall in the fifth round of the 2010 Entry Draft and in his eight seasons with the Stars, he has 71 goals and 303 assists in 552 career games. Nineteen of his 41 assists came on the Stars’ power play and he averaged 0.64 points per game, tops for this free-agent class on defense. Friday, Klingberg agreed to a one-year contract with the Anaheim Ducks for $7 million. In January, David Pagnotta of The Fourth Period reported that Klingberg requested a trade after contract extension negotiations hit a wall.
