On Jason Robertson
Pierre LeBrun of The Athletic: The Dallas Stars aren’t shopping Jason Robertson but are listening to what teams may do. At $7.75 million for one more year, the Stars think his value is high. They also want to know what his ask is going to be on his next contract. He’s eligible for an extension on July 1st. If they feel the price is going to be too high and not a lot of room to maneuver, they could circle back to those teams. It could be a late summer move.
David Pagnotta of The Fourth Period: Contract extension talks between the Stars and Robertson are expected to start as early as this week. Their goal is to re-sign Robertson, but they will listen to calls.
