The Dallas Stars signed forward Alexander Radulov to a five-year, $31.25-million deal, the club announced Monday.
As one of the most sought-after free-agent names of the summer, Radulov was targeted by a number of clubs, but his decision came down to the Stars and Montreal Canadiens.
In 76 regular-season games for the Habs last season, the 30-year-old registered 18 goals and 54 points - good enough for second in team scoring behind Max Pacioretty.
The contract carries an average annual value of $6.25 million, making it the richest deal handed out so far during free agency, topping Kevin Shattenkirk's $26.6 million pact with the New York Rangers.
