The Edmonton Oilers have signed forward Colton Dach to a $2.4-million two-year contract extension. The 23-year-old was acquired from Chicago at last season’s trade deadline. Skating in 61 games in 2025-26, the six-foot-four Dach recorded five goals and eight assists as well as 52 penalty minutes. Dach made his Edmonton debut on March 6 and saw action in eight games with the Oilers through the regular season. He dressed in five playoff games for the Oilers, getting an assist and clocking in an average of 8:27 ice time. The St. Albert native also put in 23 hits and three blocked shots. Dach, second-round pick of the Chicago Blackhawks (62nd overall) in the 2021 draft, piled up a total of 219 hits last season, ranking in the top 15 league-wide despite playing the fewest games among players in that range.
