Overview

  • The five-year contract carries two UFA years and keeps York under team control through the 2029-30 season.
  • York filed for arbitration as a restricted free agent before agreeing to the deal.
  • Since becoming a full-time NHL regular in 2022-23, the 2019 first-round pick has amassed 16 goals and 51 assists over 202 games.
  • The extension includes no trade protection and follows GM Daniel Brière’s use of long-term injured reserve to manage cap flexibility.
  • Under new head coach Rick Tocchet, York is slated to anchor the top pairing alongside Travis Sanheim with increased ice time and power-play opportunities.
