The 28-year-old center, who can also play right wing, joined the club last summer and in 53 games, he scored 33 points (15G, 18A) across all competitions.
Kielly had previously spent the 2023-2024 season with Allen Americans of the ECHL where he finished out the season after also icing with South Carolina Stingrays and Sheffield Steelers.
Born in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, Kameron began that season in Sheffield and played six times for the Yorkshire club, scoring one goal before moving back to North America to spend the majority of the season with South Carolina.
Kielly, who stands at 6-foot and 1-inch tall, has also played two games in the American Hockey League for Belleville Senators, the NHL’s Ottawa Senators affiliate team and over 150 games in the ECHL.
Before turning pro in 2020, Kameron also spent three years playing in USports with the University of Prince Edward Island and also five seasons in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League, where he iced in over 300 games.
LEFEBVRE ON KIELLY
After bringing Kielly back for another year, Stars Director of Hockey Operations and Head Coach, Marc LeFebvre, said: “It is great to have Kam back with us again this season.
“I believe he is going to keep building off of last season and be a more offensive weapon for us this year.
“He brings a lot of needed skill to our lineup and will be given a better opportunity this season to show what he can bring to the table.”
KIELLY ON COMING BACK FOR MORE
Once his extension was confirmed, Kameron said: “I am happy to be back in Dundee, I enjoyed my time here last season and already knowing some of the boys in the team makes it easier and exciting.
“When myself and Marc spoke this summer, it was comfortable, you know what you are getting into and I really enjoyed my time here last season, so it was an easy decision at the end of the day.
“I have a great relationship with everyone at the club and there is some unfinished business for the guys who were here last season and myself included, so we are looking to build off that and take it to the next level this year.”
In his 16-year-career so far, Kameron has featured in 717 matches, recorded 269 goals, 360 assists and collected 568 penalty minutes, while also playing in 77 playoff games, where he tallied 68 points (31G, 37A) and 108 penalty minutes.
Kameron is our 19th signing of the summer and joins Drydn Dow, Jonathan McBean, Jarrett Fiske, Jackson Desouza, Craig Moore, Craig Garrigan, Keanu Yamamoto, Dominick Jaglar, Kris Inglis, Griffin Luce, Morten Jürgens, Nick Isaacson, Matt Berry, Spencer Naas, Justin Bean, Ben Almquist, Brad Schoonbaert and Matt Boudens on next season’s roster.
