| 1st July, 2008 - 4:13 pm | RealGM Staff Report - Minnesota Wild President and General Manager Doug Risebrough today announced the National Hockey League (NHL) club has signed left wing Andrew Brunette to a multi-year contract.
“Andrew is a consistent offensive performer and an excellent teammate who helped create the culture of our team,” said Risebrough. “We are better, on the ice and in the dressing room, with him back. Not often do you get the chance to correct a mistake.”

Brunette ranks third on the team’s all-time assist list and is fifth in points and seventh in goals.
