BREAKING: Wild COMMIT to Filip Gustavsson Long-Term | Is Gustavsson Most UNDERRATED NHL Goalie?

Filip Gustavsson signs a 5-year, $34 million extension with the Minnesota Wild. The deal solidifies Gustavsson as the Wild's starting goaltender through 2031. His .914 save percentage over the last three seasons ranks third in the NHL, tied with Ilya Sorokin and behind only Linus Ullmark and Connor Hellebuyck.

Seth Toupal breaks down Gustavsson's stats, comparing him to other top NHL netminders. The $6.8 million AAV places Gustavsson 11th among goalies, below Jake Oettinger and Thatcher Demko. What does this mean for prospect Jesper Wallstedt's future? Toupal examines the Wild's goaltending situation, drawing parallels to the Bruins' Ullmark-Swayman tandem.

Will Gustavsson's extension impact Kirill Kaprizov's future with the Wild? Get the full analysis on Gustavsson's new deal and its implications for Minnesota's roster in this must-listen episode.
