Kaprizov inks 5-year, $45M deal

The Minnesota Wild have signed left-winger Kirill Kaprizov to a five-year, $45-million contract, ending a stalemate between the team and the Calder Memorial Trophy winner just before the beginning of training camp. The 24-year-old Kaprizov topped the Wild and all NHL rookies with 27 goals in 55 games last season. Kaprizov received 99 of 100 first-place votes in winning

the Calder as top rookie.
