Mikael Granlund News

The Ducks have signed Mikael Granlund to a three-year contract worth $7.0M AAV ($21.0M total).

The Dallas Stars were reportedly interested in bringing Granlund back after meshing with the team after joining before the trade deadline. However, the Stars were not able to match the $7 million AAV, three-year contract from the Anaheim Ducks. Granlund provides some depth at the center position after losing Trevor Zegras in a trade last week. The 33-year-old Granlund had 66 points (22G / 44A) in 80 games last season.

The Stars have acquired Mikael Granlund and Cody Ceci from the Sharks for a 2025 first-round pick and a conditional 2025 third-round pick.

Granlund is in the final year of a four-year, $5.0M AAV deal. The veteran forward is having an outstanding season, recording 15 goals and 30 assist (45 points) in 52 games with the Sharks. He will provide depth in the Stars' middle-6, which was lacking a little bit following the injury to Tyler Seguin.

Mikael Granlund (lower-body) will miss at least the next three games after being placed on the injured reserve.

Granlund played 15:36 in the Sharks' season-opener but has since been placed on IR, meaning he will miss at least the next three games. Granlund is coming off a 79-game campaign that saw him net 41 points (10G / 31A) in time split between the Nashville Predators and Pittsburgh Penguins. No corresponding moves have been made just yet but it is possible that rookie Thomas Bordeleau could shift up to Granlund's position as the second-line center. Bordeleau has seven points (0G / 7A) in 17 career NHL games.
