Pierre Marc Bouchard Signs with Minnesota Wild

Rod Edwards

GM, Minnesota Wild

Looking to secure the core of the team Pierre marc Bouchard has been signed to a 2 year deal worth 1.8 million a year.
This was a good deal for all involved as it secured Pierre with the Wild for a couple of years while not breaking the bank, leaving plenty of cap room for the financially responsible Wild organization to deal with.

Pierre Marc Bouchard : " I am exceptionally very happy to be staying here in Minnesota with coach Jacques Lemaire. The organization has treated me well and dealt with me very fairly.
I hope to be a leader on this team for the next decade, and I am especially excited about the future of this club. I think all players here loyal to the Wild should consider what could happen here if we all except a little less and leave a little more for a possible spectacular future what I feel will be a strong contender for years to come.
I am looking forward to being a part of that. "

Pierre is a good start with a few others to be looked at as of yet.
