BREAKING: Massive Deal for a Minnessota Wild young gun
It's just been announced that the Wild have re-signed their young gun, Mat Boldy for the next 7 years.
Boldy, 21, didn't require any time to adjust when he made the transition from the NCAA to the pros. An ankle injury kept him away from the game for a bit, but once he was fully recovered he stepped into the game like he had been there forever.
The Wild inked him to a 7-year deal worth $49M. Boldy has been impressive since he entered the big leagues with 68 points in 89 games.
The Wild continue to grow their players through their own system, the 6'2'' offensive winger was originally drafted in the 2019 Draft with the 12th overall pick. The Canucks selected 10th that same year and chose Vasily Podkolzin.
Is it too early to say that the Canucks should've gone with Boldy instead of Podkolzin, on my end, it's a definite yes, let the kid grow and develop then we'll talk.
