The Dallas Stars signed defenseman Esa Lindell to a two-year, $4.4-million contract extension Monday, the team announced.
Lindell is coming off his entry-level contract and was poised to become a restricted free agent July 1.
"Esa displayed great composure during his first season in the NHL and we look forward to his continued development as a top player on our defense," general manager Jim Nill said in a release.
The 2016-17 campaign was Lindell's first full season in the league, and saw him post six goals and 18 points in 73 games.
