In only two days, the
Minnesota Wild has released two pieces of exciting news for hockey fans.
First off, defenseman Clayton
Stoner’s contract has been extended for two more years. Some skeptics have
wondered if the sheer number of injuries he has sustained would make him less
valuable, but Wild coach Mike Yeo believes that Stoner remains an important
player. This year, he was a plus-3 player and a plus-5 player last season,
something that is a major feat for most Wild players. Stoner has also
previously been nominated for the Bill Masterton Memorial Trophy.
Another exciting
announcement made was that the Wild June Road Tour has been scheduled! There
are three legs to the tour, each one with a handful of Wild players, and each
leg will visit six cities each over three days before coming together at the
Wild Summer Bash in Roseville. It is primarily a fundraising tour, although it
also includes autograph sessions and many, many more activities in Roseville.
