3 years, $19.5 million total.

I think it's a solid deal. Especially when you see what Moulson got, I think Vanek is a nice upgrade for less years and not too much more money. Now if the Wild could just dump Backstrom's contract.

I like it. They needed more fire power.
I would like them to improve the goalie situation but I don't think they have a lot of options right now.

Oh yeah, I know everyone was bent out of shape about him not scoring a goal for so long, but the dude was getting assists left and right. It's not like he wasn't making an impact.
