Mats Zuccarello signs 5 years with Minnesota Wild agrees to terms with the RW on a five-year, $30 million contract. team release

Good luck Zucc. We miss you

as i said in the WIld thread, really don't like this deal. I like Zuccarello, but not at that price and term for his age. Fenton's mantra as been "younger and faster", and Zucarello doesn't fit either of those notions. I could see if the Wild were in a "win now" type situation, but they proved last season that they are no where near close to making a run anytime soon.

Thumbs down in my book.

LOL, according to TSN website, he re-signed with Dallas...

5 years for a 32 year old

what's the worst that can go wrong.

yup this is a horrific signing - could be right up there with Loui Eriksson

Right?! Especially when you already have three 34 year old players on the decline... two of them still under contract for 7 years...

Snakearello!
