Jason Robertson and Dallas Stars Face High-Stakes Arbitration Showdown—What Could This Mean for Their Future?
We know that ahead of the 2026 NHL Draft, Robertson rejected an eight-year offer from the Seattle Kraken, somewhere between $120 million and $125 million, with a salary cap hit between $15 million and $15.625 million. His clear preference is to remain with the Dallas Stars. Stars General Manager Jim Nill prefers to keep Jason Robertson, but on his terms.
This has been an ongoing battle between the Stars and Robertson since last offseason. Nill doesn’t want to go past Mikko Rantanen‘s $12 million AAV. The Stars offered Robertson the Rantanen contract, and it was turned down. Robertson is looking for $14 million on an AAV similar to what Leon Draisaitl got in Edmonton.
