Wyatt Johnston is having another phenomenal year in which he could very reach 30-goal mark for the second straight year. Johnston currently has 23 goals and 59 points on the season, and has already proven to be a reliable spark plug for the Stars in his young career. On top of being a constant source of scoring, the 21-yr old center has also shown that he can handle the task of winning face offs, boasting a 49% face off success rate. The Stars promptly rewarded the young forward by giving him a five-year, $8.4 million extension. At the rate of development, the extension for Johnston will most likely be a cost saver for the Stars as they look to continue to spend to improve other parts of their roster.
After edging the Flames in a 3-2 victory, the Stars will be back in action tonight as they take on the Edmonton Oilers. Puck drop is scheduled for 9pm CST and can be viewed on Victory+.
