ST. PAUL, Minn. — The Minnesota Wild signed goalie Marc-Andre Fleury to a one-year, $2.5 million contract extension to bring back the veteran for his age-40 season. Fleury turns 40 on Nov. 28. He has had a prolific season in which he passed Patrick Roy for second place behind Martin Brodeur on the NHL's all-time list in career goaltending wins. Brodeur with 691 is still 130 ahead of Fleury. The Wild also have goalie Filip Gustavsson under contract for two more seasons on a $3.75 million salary cap charge and top prospect Jesper Wallstedt still waiting in the wings.
