Wild Sign Goalie Filip Gustavsson to 5-Year Extension

Filip Gustavsson’s five-year, $34 million extension includes a no-movement clause and secures Minnesota’s starting goalie through the 2030-31 NHL season.

  • On Saturday, the Minnesota Wild announced a five-year, $34 million extension for goaltender Filip Gustavsson starting in the 2026-27 season through 2030-31.
  • After a rebound season, Gustavsson finished sixth in Vezina Trophy voting with a 31-19-6 record,.914 save percentage and 2.56 goals-against average last year.
  • Contract mechanics include year-by-year salaries of $8MM, $8.5MM, $7.2MM, $5.2MM, and $5.1MM, with an immediate no-movement clause through 2027-28 and a 15-team no-trade list afterward.
  • The move secures the Minnesota Wild’s core of players under 30 on multiyear deals, ensures Gustavsson remains the clear starter for a 55-plus start 2025-26 season, and removes near-term anxiety ahead of free agency.
  • Coming days after Kaprizov’s deal on Tuesday, the Wild signed Gustavsson amid a thin goalie market, preserving his 2026 Winter Olympics spot while starting Thursday’s 2025-26 regular season opener in St. Louis.
