The Dallas Stars have secured the continuity of defenseman Nils Lundkvist with a one-year contract for $1.25 million, as announced this Friday.
Lundkvist, 24 years old, added five assists and a +4 differential in 39 games last season.
Nils brings a unique combination of offensive skill and defensive reliability to our team.
