The Minnesota Wild have signed captain Mikko Koivu to a two-year contract extension worth $11 million, the team announced Monday.

Koivu will carry a cap hit of $6.75 million in the final season of a seven-year contract signed in 2010. Once his extension kicks in, he'll earn $5.5 million per campaign.

The Wild centerman has been consistent throughout his career in Minnesota, and is the club's all-time leader in games played, assists, and points.

In 80 games last season, Koivu, 34, recorded 18 goals and 40 assists, marking his highest point total since 2010-11. Koivu also led all Wild forwards in averaging 19:07 in ice time, and won 55.2% of faceoffs, good enough to earn recognition as a Selke Trophy finalist.
