Backstrom signs 4 year deal with Wild

as per Pierre LeBrun of ESPN.com


The Minnesota Wild have signed star goalie Niklas Backstrom to a $24 million, four-year contract, a source told ESPN.com on Tuesday.

He was scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent on July 1, and he had been the subject of numerous trade rumors.

All I can say is GOOD - anything that keeps this guy out of the Flyers goal makes me happy!
