Brunnstrom a Star?

Is Swedish forward, NHL-star-to-be Fabian Brunnstrom going to join the Dallas Stars? Looks like the Stars and the 23-year-old Brunnstrom have agreed to terms on a deal. The whole thing needs to be wrapped up and a bow put on top (aka, needs to be signed, sealed, delivered, approved by the NHL, etc.).

Here's the quote from TSN's story from Brunnstrom's agent, J.P. Barry: "In the end there was no wrong decision. The Dallas option was simply the best one overall and Fabian is very comfortable with his decision."

The Stars brass was pretty high on this kid. Les Jackson said he's top-six good. So we'll see if it becomes official tonight or tomorrow. Detroit and Montreal were also in the big hunt for Brunnstrom.

Wow, the Stars won the battle of the Swedes against the Red Wings.

I still wonder if this wasn't just a case of a really good agent pulling a fast one. Hope it isn't and the Stars got a great player.
