Quinn Hughes weighs contract extension with Minnesota Wild

Minnesota Wild defenseman Quinn Hughes remains undecided on a contract extension as the team prepares to open training camp in 10 days. Although general manager Bill Guerin has expressed confidence in reaching a deal, reports indicate Hughes has not yet committed to an offer. The franchise is reportedly willing to make him the highest-paid player in the NHL to secure his future. Hughes is entering the final year of his current contract and has previously expressed interest in potentially playing on the same team as his brother, Jack Hughes. Speculation suggests the defenseman may prefer a three-year deal to align his free agency with his brother’s contract expiration in 2030. Hughes is scheduled to address media representatives at the NHL North American Media Tour in Las Vegas this Wednesday.
