Twitter Rumor: Dallas Stars Sign Jiri Hudler to One-Year Contract?

Sonny Sachdeva of Today's Slapshot is reporting the Stars have added the lower-line left wing for a one-year, $2 million deal.

Have the Dallas Stars just made a relatively low-risk but totally unexpected addition to their forward group?

Sonny Sachdeva, a writer for Today's Slapshot, sure thinks so.

Sachdeva further reports that Hudler's deal is for one year and a $2 million cap hit.

If this is true, which is a caveat we have to have until further confirmation is available, it makes some measure of sense. The Stars have had luck with veterans on one-year deals (think Patrick Eaves and the beard of amazingness), and Jim Nill knows Hudler well from the time spent together with the Detroit Red Wings.
