Wild's Dmitry Kulikov: Earns two-year deal with Minnesota

Kulikov signed a two-year, $4.5 million contract with the Wild on Wednesday.

Kulikov managed just four assists in 48 games between the Devils and the Oilers last season. What he lacks in offense, the 30-year-old Russian makes up for in defensive stability. Kulikov will likely see bottom-four minutes with the Wild, and his lack of offense will keep him mostly off the fantasy radar.
