Kraken sign Eberle to 2-year, $9.5M extension

The Seattle Kraken signed forward Jordan Eberle to a two-year contract extension with an average annual value of $4.75 million, the team announced Friday.

There was speculation that the Kraken would potentially move Eberle ahead of Friday's trade deadline. His new contract includes a full no-trade clause, per CapFriendly.

"We are thrilled to have Jordan remain with the Kraken for the next two years," general manager Ron Francis said. "The extension is well-deserved and getting it done was a priority for us.

"Between his leadership in the locker room and his on-ice performance, Jordan has been an important part of our franchise from day one. We are looking forward to many memorable moments with him on ice."

The 33-year-old has 14 goals and 37 points in 58 games this campaign. Eberle is in the final season of a five-year contract with an average annual value of $5.5 million.

The Kraken claimed Eberle in the 2021 expansion draft. He's accumulated 55 goals and 144 points in 219 games with the team.
