The veteran blueliner came over from Toronto last season and played 77 games for the Stars, giving the club an effective, physical complement to slick offensive stars like John Klingberg and Miro Heiskanen. Even at 33, Polak still likes to dish out punishment, delivering 191 hits while also blocking a career-high 151 shots. He offers almost nothing on offense, but that's not his role. After re-signing with Dallas on a two-year deal, Polak will give the club a stay-at-home beast who allows the blue-line studs to do their thing.
