Sharks sign Dell to 2-year contract extension

The San Jose Sharks signed goaltender Aaron Dell to a two-year contract extension on Wednesday, the team announced.

The 28-year-old is in the final season of a two-year, $1.225-million contract and is set to become an unrestricted free agent on July 1.

"Aaron has met every challenge he has faced in his career head-on and our team is a confident group when he's in the net," said Wilson. "He's a very popular guy in the dressing room and we feel that Aaron and Martin [Jones] give us one of the top goaltending tandems in the League."

Dell has been solid as Martin Jones' backup this season, going 14-5-3 in 25 games with a 2.71 goals-against average and a .912 save percentage.

In his two years with the Sharks, he's amassed a record of 25-11-4 with a 2.39 goals-against average and a .920 save percentage.
