FRISCO, Texas -- The Dallas Stars have signed forward Joe Pavelski to a $5.5 million, one-year contract extension for the 2022-23 season.
The 37-year-old Pavelski leads the Stars in assists (37) and points (59) and is third with 22 goals in the final year of a $21 million, three-year deal he signed after spending his first 13 seasons in San Jose. The extension announced Friday includes $500,000 in incentives.
Pavelski's production was down during the regular season in his Dallas debut, the pandemic-interrupted 2019-20 season. But he led the team with 13 goals in the playoff bubble in Canada.
