Wild Add Miettinen

According to HockeyBuzz.com, the Minnesota Wild have added two-way forward Antti Miettinen to their line-up, signing him for 3 years for $7 million. This amounts to a salary cap hit of $2.333 million per season, which could very well be a good bargain for the Wild.

Miettinen's style of game is one that head coach, Jacques Lemaire, will associate in his line-up well. Between his offense (15 goals & 19 assists in 69 games) and his defense (+4), he could be a bit of a sleeper for your pool, as the style of play will be tuned to him.
