Wild Re-Sign Veteran Wing Marcus Johansson to 1-Year, $800,000 Contract to Avoid Free Agency

  • The Minnesota Wild re-signed veteran wing Marcus Johansson to a one-year, $800,000 contract on June 2, 2025, in Paul, Minn.
  • The Wild added the veteran forward to their roster shortly before the 2023 trade deadline after he spent 15 NHL seasons playing for seven different teams and is set to celebrate his 35th birthday ahead of the upcoming season.
  • Last season, Johansson played 72 games with Minnesota, scored 11 goals and 23 assists, and ranked sixth on the team in points while cycling between second and third lines.
  • He added two assists in a six-game first-round playoff loss to Vegas and scored four goals for Sweden in winning bronze at the recent world championships.
  • By signing this contract, Johansson will remain with the team and not enter free agency when the signing window opens on July 1, 2025, shortly after the NHL draft takes place in late June in Los Angeles.
