Why Freddy Gaudreau's Extension is a Great Deal for the Wild

On today's episode of Locked on Wild, we break down a 5 year extension for Freddy Gaudreau announced during their game against Nashville. We start by discussing the areas in which Gaudreau helps the Wild most, such as defense and special teams. We look at his improvements on offense over the last 2 years, as well as his smart and penalty free style that he brings on the ice nightly. We discuss his shootout excellence and ability to play in multiple spots up and down the lineup. We look at where he could slot into the lineup over the next few years, and speculate as to who might be next on the extension list into the offseason and beyond!
