Summary
The Minnesota Wild are racing to lock down defenseman Quinn Hughes before free agency, as he seeks a 3-year, $16-18M deal—similar to Kaprizov’s contract. Talks have stalled but insiders still expect a deal soon, buoyed by coach John Hynes’ confidence. Hughes, who exploded for 53 points in 48 games after joining midseason, thrives in Minnesota, loves the city, and has strong ties to the team—making a long-term stay feel inevitable.
