Jason Robertson pulls off a savvy move, signing a one-year, $12M deal with the Dallas Stars to avoid arbitration and stay put for the season — a decision that benefits both player and team amid tight cap constraints. Despite lucrative offers elsewhere, including a $15M deal, Robertson chose to fight for his future in Dallas, citing alignment with the team’s goals and his own growth. The move opens the door for a long-term extension starting January 1st, while giving the Stars breathing room as they navigate upcoming contract deadlines. With the NHL cap poised to rise next summer, Robertson’s current salary — matching Mikko Rantanen’s previous ceiling — could soon look like a bargain. Training hard and feeling sharper than ever, Robertson is laser-focused on proving he’s ready to elevate his game even further, echoing his Olympic drive and confidence in his ability to reach new heights.
