Last week, the Minnesota Wild & Bill Guerin shocked the fanbase by buying out not only the last four years of Zach Parise‘s contract but what was more shocking, was that defenseman Ryan Suter was also bought out the same day as Parise.
Without Suter on the team for the 2021-2022 season, the Minnesota Wild may have to dive into free agency when it opens on July 28th and sign a veteran defenseman.
