Chicago Blackhawks forward Jason Dickinson signed a two-year, $8.5 million contract extension on Tuesday that will span through the 2025-26 season.

Dickinson, 28, already has scored a career-high 14 goals to go along with seven assists in 43 games this season. His previous career high in goals was nine, set in 2019-20 with the Dallas Stars and matched last season with the Blackhawks.

Dickinson is playing in the final season of a three-year, $7.95 million contract.

“Jason adds a unique two-way game to our lineup and his compete level is consistently strong every night,” Blackhawks general manager Kyle Davidson said. “He’s showing his offensive game this year, which has been a huge lift to our team. His leadership has been instrumental, and the impact has been evident around the room, particularly with our young guys. We’re excited to bring him back and to see him continue to grow with our team.”

Dickinson has totaled 125 points (53 goals, 72 assists) in 404 career games with the Stars, Vancouver Canucks and Blackhawks. He was selected by Dallas with the 29th overall pick in the 2013 NHL Draft.
