Dallas Stars: Cap, Picks, Contracts, and Updates

Salary Cap and Draft Picks

As of today, the Dallas Stars have a cap hit of $76,105,329, with a ceiling of just over $83 million after accounting for the Pavelski overage. This leaves them with some room to maneuver under the salary cap and make some additions to their roster.

The Stars also have a number of draft picks in the upcoming NHL Entry Draft, including:

• 1st round, 13th overall
• 2nd round, 43rd overall
• 3rd round, 73rd overall
• 4th round, 103rd overall
• 5th round, 133rd overall
• 6th round, 163rd overall
• 7th round, 193rd overall

These picks give the Stars some flexibility to add young talent to their organization, either through the draft or by trading them for other assets.

The Stars have a number of key players under contract for the upcoming season, including:

• Jamie Benn (C) - $9.5 million AAV
• Tyler Seguin (C) - $9.85 million AAV
• John Klingberg (D) - $7 million AAV
• Miro Heiskanen (D) - $8.45 million AAV
• Jake Oettinger (G) - $4 million AAV

These players form the core of the Stars' roster and will be counted on to lead the team to success in the upcoming season.

Injury Updates

The Stars currently have a few players on the injured reserve list, including:

• Radek Faksa (C) - Upper body injury
• Joel Kiviranta (LW) - Upper body injury
• Blake Comeau (LW) - Upper body injury

These injuries will likely force the Stars to make some adjustments to their lineup in the short term, but they are all expected to return to the lineup at some point during the season.
