Dylan Gambrell is sticking with the Ottawa Senators.
The 25-year-old has signed a one-year, $950,000 contract extension for the 2022-23 season.
Gambrell appeared in a career-high 63 games this past season and scored seven points (three goals, four assists) after being acquired in a trade with the San Jose Sharks on October 24. He also appeared in three games with the Sharks’ American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate, the San Jose Barracuda, notching one assist.
“Dylan’s versatility is one of his greatest strengths,” said Senators general manager Pierre Dorion. “He quickly earned the trust of our coaching staff as an effective penalty killer who could be relied upon in any situation from the center position.”
Gambrell, who hails from Bonney Lake, Washington, was one of five Senators to record a shorthanded goal this year and will enter next season with 30 career points (13 goals, 17 assists) in 173 total games.
