Wild sign Thomas Vanek!

3 years, $19.5 million total.

I think it's a solid deal. Especially when you see what Moulson got, I think Vanek is a nice upgrade for less years and not too much more money. Now if the Wild could just dump Backstrom's contract.

OJ Mayo is one of the best defenders in the league, hes a two way player and hes a great passer and playmaker.

I like it. They needed more fire power.
I would like them to improve the goalie situation but I don't think they have a lot of options right now.

Oh yeah, I know everyone was bent out of shape about him not scoring a goal for so long, but the dude was getting assists left and right. It's not like he wasn't making an impact.
