The Minnesota Wild have filled at least one of their vacant spots on the blue line this summer, signing free agent defenseman Alex Goligoski to a one-year contract with a $5-million AAV and a full no-trade clause, giving him full control of potential trades mid-season.

Goligoski, 35, is certainly one of the most experienced blueliners the Wild could have got, and it only benefitted them more that the Grand Rapids, Minn.
