Dallas announced late Friday that they have signed Riley Damiani to a one-year, two-way deal. The deal closes out all of Dallas' open RFA qualifying offers.
Damiani came out of the gates hot from junior, winning AHL Rookie of the Year in 2021. He took a step back in the last two years as he wasn't able to break out his offense as much as that first season. This past year, he had the lowest plus-minus on the team at minus-15.
With a decent chunk of new talent coming in from juniors this season for Texas, this is a big chance for Damiani to prove his value and act as a veteran leader for the crew.
