Gaetan Haas’ rookie skate in the NHL was later than most, coming at 27 years old, but it was enough to earn him a contract extension from the Edmonton Oilers.
Haas agreed to a one-year, $915,000 extension on Tuesday, after he put up five goals and five assists in 58 games last year.
The six-foot, 181-pound centreman scored his first NHL goal on Nov. 4 against the Arizona Coyotes and had a -1 +/- rating when play was paused by the COVID-19 pandemic.
