Wild Sign 2022 1st-Round Draft Pick Danila Yurov to 3-Year, Entry-Level Contract
- The Minnesota Wild signed Russian prospect Danila Yurov to a three-year, entry-level contract in May 2025.
- Yurov was their 2022 first-round draft pick, a process that took about a year and required contract negotiations.
- He played 46 games last season with Metallurg Magnitogorsk in the KHL, recording 12 goals and 12 assists while standing 6-foot-1 and weighing 175 pounds.
- General manager Bill Guerin noted that finalizing the deal took an entire year, and expressed relief that it is now complete, while highlighting the importance of committing to a full, 200-foot style of play.
- Yurov is expected to start at center, needing strong defense to secure a roster spot but could make an immediate offensive impact and grow into his full potential.
