By Joe -
Wild fans have kept an eye on the six-time 60 point scorer that hails from Vienna, Austria. His pending unrestricted free agency at the end of this season has Wild fans hoping the front office can lure him back to Minnesota. Vanek was a crucial member of the 2002-03 Golden Gophers team that won the NCAA National Championship.
There have been no discussions between Snow and Vanek of a possible contract extension. Most people believe that Vanek will still test the waters of free agency, which gives Wild fans a glimmer of hope of landing him in the offseason. Others yet, feel that Moulson still may be flipped again for more picks by Buffalo GM Darcy Regier.
Either way, until something drastically changes from now and next summer, Wild fans can still hope that the possibility for Vanek coming to Minnesota is still there. However, the only question by that time will be, "Will the Wild need Vanek?"
