Dallas Stars bolster depth

- — The Associated Press

Forward Lauri Korpikoski has signed a $1 million, one-year contract with the Dallas Stars after the eight-year NHL veteran was released from his profession­al tryout with the Calgary Flames.

General manager Jim Nill said the signing bolsters the Stars’ depth at forward.

Nill called the 30-year-old Finn an experience­d, discipline­d player who can kill penalties. The left winger had 22 points (10 goals) in 71 games for Edmonton last season.
