Nill Banking on Robertson Extension After Bridge Deal

The Stars have locked Robertson in on a one-year deal, but Jim Nill is already thinking about the next chapter and making it a priority to get a longer-term agreement done. This is classic front-office strategy - secure your star now, negotiate the bigger contract later when you have more cap flexibility. Nill's public optimism about making it work suggests Dallas has a roadmap to keep Robertson happy and under contract for the foreseeable future.
