I-94 shows previous entry date, I-94 travel history has new dates. Crossed border by land for a canada trip and H1b is up for renewal

Have a question around I-94, so I crossed the border via land in June 2019 from canada for a trip, they didn't issue me a new I-94 still have the old one from Dec 2018. My I-94 travel history shows my exit and entry dates, since I didn't ask for a new I-94 they didn't give me one.

Dec 2018 I-94 is valid till my current H1b expiry date so I'm good on that, its just that my travel history shows June 2019 entry but latest I-94 shows Dec 2018 entry.

H-1b is up for renewal, so should I get a new I-94 just to be safe for my extension application?

Your old i94 is valid as CBP on land borders do not generate a new i94. unless you specifically ask for one. This should not be an issue.

Using Automatic Visa revalidation aka AVR is absolutely legal. Hence you are looking for a problem where none exists.

No problem. You are good. Folks who travel to Canada and Mexico usually don't get an updated I-94. But their travel history shows latest dates. That is totally fine.
