The Winnipeg Jets have locked up defenceman Dylan Samberg with a two-year contract extension.
Samberg, 24, was a restricted free agent this summer. He will make US $1.4 million per season on the new deal signed Wednesday.
The Minnesota product, who was selected in the second round (43rd overall) by Winnipeg in 2017, cemented himself as a regular on the Jets blue-line last year. He had two goals and six assists in 63 games and a plus-10 rating along with 25 penalty minutes.
Samberg was one of six RFAs on the club. The other five — forwards Morgan Barron, Gabe Vilardi and Rasmus Kupari and defencemen Logan Stanley and Declan Chisholm – still need to be re-signed.
Barron and Vilardi both filed for salary arbitration by Wednesday’s deadline. That means an independent third party will hear arguments from both the player and team later this summer and make a binding decision, provided an agreement can’t be reached by then.
