Robertson of Stars among 15 players to file for NHL salary arbitration

On July 5, 15 NHL players filed for salary arbitration according to the NHL Players' Association, including Dallas Stars forward Jason Robertson, who recorded 96 points in 82 games this season, along with Jamie Drysdale and Kirby Dach. Arbitration hearings were scheduled for July 20–August 1, though several players avoided hearings by signing contracts beforehand, including Trevor Zegras and Drysdale with Philadelphia, Kirby Dach with Montreal, and Cole Perfetti with Winnipeg on a six-year deal. Last offseason, all 13 players who had filed for arbitration ultimately signed before their scheduled hearings.
