EDMONTON — The Edmonton Oilers have signed defenceman Shakir Mukhamadullin to a two-year contract extension, the NHL club announced Sunday.

The deal has an average annual value of US$1.75 million.

Mukhamadullin, 24, came over to Edmonton as part of the trade that sent defenceman Darnell Nurse to the San Jose Sharks.

The six-foot-four, 200-pound Mukhamadullin had 12 points (five goals, seven assists) in 50 games for the Sharks last season.

Edmonton also signed defenceman Spencer Stastney to a one-year extension with an AAV of $1.525 million.

The 26-year-old was acquired by the Oilers in a trade with Nashville last season. He totalled 10 points (one goal, nine assists) in 66 regular-season games between the two teams in 2025-26.
