The Dallas Stars signed forward Roope Hintz to a three-year deal with an average annual value of $3.15 million, the team announced Monday.
Hintz, 23, will be a restricted free agent when the deal expires following the 2022-23 season.
The 6-foot-3 Finn ranked second on the Stars with a career-best 19 goals - including five game-winners - and added 14 assists through 60 regular-season contests in 2019-20.
He added two goals and 13 points over 25 playoff games during the Stars' run to the Stanley Cup Final.
Stars general manager Jim Nill has kept busy this offseason. He inked netminder Anton Khudobin and forwards Radek Faksa and Denis Gurianov to new deals and brought in defenseman Mark Pysyk. Nill also named Rick Bowness permanent head coach in October.
Dallas now has just under $258,000 in projected cap space with a full 23-man roster, according to CapFriendly.
