Utah Hockey Club Signs Dylan Guenther to 8-Year, $57.14M Extension

The 21-year-old forward commits long-term to the relocated franchise as it prepares for its inaugural season in Salt Lake City.

The contract extension will begin in the 2025-26 season and carries an annual cap hit of just over $7.14 million.
Guenther, originally drafted ninth overall by the Arizona Coyotes in 2021, has 50 points in 78 career NHL games.
Last season, Guenther recorded 35 points (18 goals, 17 assists) in 45 games with the Coyotes before their move to Utah.
Utah GM Bill Armstrong praised Guenther as an elite player with a rapidly improving shot and strong character.
The deal makes Guenther one of the highest-paid players on the team, second only to forward Clayton Keller.
