DALLAS – Assistant captain Dylan Hryckowian of the Northeastern men's ice hockey team signed a two-year entry-level contract with the Dallas Stars, capping off his third and final season. The Île Bizard, Quebec native was a key piece of the 2024 Beanpot Championship team and helped the Huskies reach the 2025 Hockey East semifinals at TD Garden.

Hryckowian closes out his collegiate career as a 2026 Hockey East First Team All-Star and Hobey Baker Award nominee. He earned three Hockey East award honors and two Hockey East All-Academic Team selections during his three seasons with the Huskies.
 
Hryckowian finishes his collegiate career with 39 goals, 68 assists and 107 points in 100 appearances, becoming the first Husky to record 100 points as a junior since his brother Justin in 2023-24 and just the 24th player in program history to reach the milestone in three seasons or fewer. He also recorded three consecutive 30-point seasons, the first Husky to accomplish the feat since Adam Gaudette (2015-18).

In his junior season, Hryckowian posted a career-high 37 points on 15 goals and 22 assists in 30 games, becoming the first Husky to record three straight 30-point seasons since Adam Gaudette (2015-18). He paced the team with 13 multi-point games while tying for fourth in Hockey East in conference points (22) and ranking tied for second among all Hockey East skaters in overall scoring.

Hryckowian is the second member of the 2025-26 Northeastern roster to sign an NHL contract this postseason, joining Vinny Borgesi, who signed with the Toronto Maple Leafs on March 17.
