Confirmed with Link: Kyle Brodziak re-signs for 3 years

[JamesRanger]

Glad to hear it. Nobody has earned an extenstion more then Brodziak.

[Haite]

I wish I had filmed my reaction because it would've made a great gif. Oh well, I'm very happy with this, wonder about the cap hit, though.

I'm thinking 3 mill a year.

Was it up there with Scandella's post-game reaction?

[Caior89]

\o/ Glad to hear it, Brodz really deserved it.

[Dr Jan Itor]

Hoping for $2.5 or $2.75

[Engebretson]

Very happy about this. Hopefully, as others have said, the dollar amount isn't too crazy, but it's great to have Brodziak in the organization for another 3 years.

Perhaps not quite, but it was pretty hardcore thrusting. Duffman would be jelly.

If that is what the amount is:

#1. I'll be pissed off.

#2. We should've traded him before the deadline.

Kyle Brodziak receives three-year contract extension with Wild

[D U M B A]

2.83 according to Russo. Ugh.

[Red Alberks]

Kyle Brodziak has signed a three-year contract extension at what I'm hearing is worth around $2.83 million a year.

Per Russo.

[GopherState]

For those who aren't math-inclined, it would be 3 years, $8.5 M

Oh and it seems we got our top 3 lines pretty much set for next year.

[Engebretson]

Meh, not a terrible price tag. Could've been worse. I'm still happy.

[usernam*]

2.83/64 for Brodziak? Fine by me. Even if he is our 3rd line center. I bet he'd get more than that if he hit FA.

[Haite]

I'm not mad at the caphit. He'd probably get over 3 as a free agent, I'd say.

[Fel 96]

Congrats to brodzy for the nice 3 years contract ! Bright future for us with him sign 3 more years !!!!

It's good. It's ok. I'm happy.

[Minnesota]

That's a fair price. Brodziak deserves this. Good news for the Wild going forward.

[mnwildgophers]

2.83 is not a bad price tag, I'd prefer to see $2.5, but there isn't anything wrong with this contract at this point in time. I don't think having too many centers will be a problem since I believe Cullen can just slide over to a wing, and he's a versatile guy. I hope his effort rubs off on some of the young guys, I'd like to see Larsson mold his game after Brodzy with a little bit more of a scoring touch.

Well Lats sounds optimistic about his future with the Wild.

[ShutDownDefense]

About 16 mill in cap space next year providing we don't trade Zidlicky now.

Probably 3 of that goes to Granlund's rookie contract and the rest to defense and goaltending.

Sounds genuinely excited to me.
