Anaheim Ducks Re-Sign Defenceman Mintyukov to 5-Year Deal Amid Carlsson Offer Sheet Drama
The five-year deal keeps the 22-year-old defenseman in Anaheim after rival teams showed interest and an offer-sheet threat, AP reported.
- On Sunday, Defenceman Pavel Mintyukov agreed to a five-year, $36 million contract extension with the Anaheim Ducks, securing the 22-year-old Russian blueliner through the 2030-31 season.
- Negotiations concluded two days after the Ducks faced a precarious situation involving cornerstone centre Leo Carlsson, who signed a five-year, $90 million offer sheet with Philadelphia last Friday.
- Mintyukov, the 10th overall pick in the 2022 NHL draft, recorded 17 goals and 52 assists over 204 games during his first three seasons in the National Hockey League.
- General Manager Pat Verbeek has faced criticism for his negotiation style, having recently lost four key defensemen including Radko Gudas and Jacob Trouba while restructuring his young core.
- Breakout star Cutter Gauthier remains the final priority for Verbeek to sign this off-season; with limited cap space following recent agreements, the Ducks will likely need to offload salary.
