The Edmonton Oilers have re-signed forward Mattias Janmark to a three-year contract worth $1.45 million annually (AAV). Janmark, a critical piece of the team's penalty kill and a strong playoff performer, returns to the Oilers after his first multi-year contract since his entry-level contract and his first raise since 2020. The deal, likely finalized today or tomorrow, leaves the Oilers with less than $1.35 million in cap space, with restricted free agents Dylan Holloway, Philip Broberg, and Raphael Lavoie still unsigned.

And with Janmark back, the Oilers again have two Mattiases. https://t.co/VYxg9tyj8Y
This is Janmark's first multi-year contract since his ELC and his first raise since 2020. The Oilers now have less than $1.35M in cap space, again with Dylan Holloway and Philip Broberg (and Raphael Lavoie) as RFAs. Kane (NMC), McLeod, Ceci and Kulak are trade candidates. https://t.co/bDZt1nCsIv
Sounds like Janmark will be returning to Oilers next season on a 3 year deal. Critical piece of the PK and one of the better playoff performers they had. Deal likely finalized today or tomorrow.
Oilers have re-signed Janmark, 3 years x $1.45 M AAV
#Oilers are also retaining Mattias Janmark: 3 years x $1.45 mil. The Janitor gets some term.
