The Wild have signed Kirill Kaprizov to a five-year contract worth $45.0 million ($9.0M AAV).
There was some concern whether or not Kaprizov would return to the Wild after signing a deal in the KHL this summer. However, the Wild were able to get him under contract for the next five years--presumably the best years of his career. At the age of 23-years-old, he dazzled in his rookie season, scoring 27 goals with 24 assists (51 points) in 55 games, winning the Calder Trophy. Coming into his second season, Kaprizov is a threat to finish at a point-per-game pace and should be considered one of the top LW options in fantasy.
The Senators have re-signed Filip Gustavsson to a two-year contract.
The Wild have signed Carson Lambos to a three-year, entry-level contract.

The Flames have acquired Tyler Pitlick from the Kraken for a 2022 fourth-round pick.
Pitlick was selected by Seattle in the Expansion Draft on Wednesday but was quickly flipped to the Flames for a fourth-round pick. Pitlick doesn't bring a lot of offence to the table but has a trustworthy two-way game that should pair well with Mikael Backlund and help out the Flames penalty kill in 2021-22.
The Wild have signed Joel Eriksson Ek to an eight-year, $42 million contract extension.
The Canadiens have signed Brandon Baddock to a one-year, two-way contract extension.
