Stars Elevate Peverley to Assistant GM Role

The Dallas Stars hand Rich Peverley a well-deserved promotion to assistant general manager of player personnel, rewarding a decade-plus of front-office savvy under Jim Nill's watchful eye. Peverley, who transitioned from a cardiac scare on the bench to player development guru, has shaped the likes of Harley, Heiskanen and Hintz into core pieces. This move signals Nill's trust in his right-hand man as Dallas chases another deep playoff run with one of the league's steadiest operations.
