Wild Race to Lock Down Hughes | Minnesota Wild News
Description
The Minnesota Wild are in a tense, high-stakes negotiation to lock down star defenseman Quinn Hughes before he hits free agency next summer — even though his current deal isn’t expiring until then. With the league’s new contract benchmark set by Leo Carlsson, Hughes’ value is soaring, and the Wild are pushing for a long-term commitment, while Hughes may prefer a shorter deal. Complicating matters: Quinn’s brothers Jack and Luke also play in the NHL, sparking rumors he wants his contract aligned with Jack’s so they could reunite on the same team someday. The Wild’s GM admits talks are slow but ongoing, as they juggle market pressure, family dynamics, and their need for defensive stability.
