SAINT PAUL/MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. – Minnesota Wild General Manager Chuck Fletcher today announced the National Hockey League (NHL) club has traded forward Eric Nystrom to the Dallas Stars in exchange for future considerations.
Nystrom, 28 (2/14/83), posted 12 points (4-8=12) while skating in all 82 games for the Wild last season. The 6-foot-1, 204-pound native of Syosset, New York has collected 51 points (23-28=51) and 221 penalty minutes (PIM) in 286 games during five NHL seasons with Calgary and Minnesota.
Update 4:00pm ET: Michael Russo at the Star Tribune notes the mutual benefits—
As mentioned on yesterday’s blog, re-entry waivers would not cut it for the Stars’ salary-cap issue. They needed $1.2 million in salary to get to the floor.
Now they get $1.4 million in each of next two years. Wild doesn’t have to pick up a cent.

Fistric Rips Helmet Of Nystrom Off His Head, Hits Him With It

He (Mark Fistric) gets in a fight with Eric Nystrom and hits Nystrom on the head with his own helmet.
The match penalty means intent to injure. We could be looking at a suspension here.
It’s too bad. Fistric had a clean hit on Nystrom that Nystrom took exception to. Fistric was winning the fight and just ended up with Nystrom’s helmet by the strap, and then he swung his fist and hit Nystrom in the head with the helmet.
I happened to be watching the game and it looked like to me that the helmet sort of was looped in the finger of Fistric, didn’t look intential to me.
