Reports are emerging this afternoon that Brock Faber and Wild GM Bill Guerin have finalized an 8-year, $68 million extension. This substantial deal comes on the heels of Faber's Calder Trophy finalist performance.
Just over a year after joining the Minnesota Wild, Brock Faber has secured a major extension to remain with the team long-term. Few anticipated such rapid success following his departure from the University of Minnesota.
Faber will now continue his quest for a Norris Trophy with the Wild. If he reaches Norris Trophy-caliber performance, this contract could quickly become a bargain.
