The Minnesota Wild have signed forward Jason Zucker to a two-year, $4-million contract extension.

A second-round pick at the 2010 NHL Draft (59th overall), the 24-year-old forward recorded 13 goals and 10 assists in 71 games this past season. Zucker scored a career-high 21 goals in 2014-15 while appearing in only 51 games.

The deal marks a nice raise over Zucker's average annual valuation of $900,250 over the past two seasons.
