The San Jose Sharks re-signed defenseman Dylan DeMelo to a two-year contract, the team announced Saturday. The deal is reportedly worth $900K per season, according to The Athletic's Kevin Kurz.
DeMelo was previously non-tendered by the Sharks, which granted him unrestricted status and freed him to sign with any team.
The 25-year-old suited up for 63 games with the Sharks this past season, collecting 20 assists while failing to score a goal. He'll likely compete for ice time with Tim Heed on the team's third defensive pairing.
