His speed may lead him to the breakout season that the Dallas brass wanted to see.<\/p>\n<p>He also helped Sweden win the gold medal at the 2018 IIHF World Championships, where he scored four goals and six assists for 10 points.<\/p>\n<p>With Martin Hanzal still recovering from back surgery, Janmark could play a big role early in the year.<\/p>\n<p>Main photo via Getty Images.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Dallas Stars have re-signed restricted free agent forward Mattias Janmark to a one-year contract worth $2.3 million.
