A source said the deal is done and will be announced shortly.
Gologoski is a puck-moving defenseman who leads Pittsburgh with a plus-20.
It's definitely a risk, but I think it moves an asset from an area of strength (left wing) to get an asset in an area of weakness (defense).
Neal could become a very good player, especially on that team, but Jamie Benn can step into his place and be just as good or better. The Stars need a player like Gologoski on defense.
