This seems rather expensive to me. While yes he is a fantastic middle six centerman. You would think he might give a hometown discount seeing as he's their Captain, and the team is a contender. It's not awful but it could be a lot better
What makes you think he didn't give a discount? His yearly salary drops from a little over 9 million USD to 5,5. That number is exactly what the Wild needed in order to stay competitive.
