Jancevski, 26, went scoreless in two games with Dallas last season, and collected two penalty minutes in two contests with the Tampa Bay Lightning in 2007-08. Originally drafted by Dallas in the second round (No. 66 overall) of the 1999 Entry Draft, he also skated in two games for the Stars during the 2005-06 campaign.

The 6-3, 218-pound defenseman was dealt from Tampa Bay to Dallas on January 15, 2008, in exchange for right wing Junior Lessard. Prior to the deal, he played in 37 games with the Lightning’s AHL affiliate in Norfolk, posting four goals and 16 assists for 20 points. He then appeared in 33 games for the Iowa Stars, collecting 10 points (3 goals, 7 assists) and 36 penalty minutes.

The native of Windsor, Ontario, served as the Iowa Stars’ captain in 2005-06 and led team defensemen in scoring with 38 points (9-29-38). He played 80 games with the AHL Hamilton Bulldogs in 2006-07 and notched 31 points (7-24-31).
