Dallas Stars captain Jamie Benn re-signed to a one-year, incentive-laden contract Thursday.

Benn's deal has a base salary of $1 million plus an additional $3 million in potential performance bonuses. He will receive $500,000 each for playing in 20, 30, 50 and 60 games during the 2025-26 season, an additional $500,000 if the Stars win the Western Conference finals and $500,000 more if the team captures the Stanley Cup.

Based on recent history, Benn has a good chance of hitting the games-played incentives. He has missed just two games in the past four seasons.
