SAINT PAUL, Minn. - Minnesota Wild General Manager Chuck Fletcher today announced the National Hockey League (NHL) club has agreed to terms with free-agent defenseman Kyle Quincey on a one-year, $1.25 million contract.

Quincey, 31 (8/12/85), tallied 15 points (6-9=15), a plus-4 rating and 51 penalty minutes (PIM) in a total of 73 games with the New Jersey Devils and Columbus Blue Jackets last season. He averaged 17:54 in TOI/game and recorded 97 hits and 97 blocked shots. He was traded by New Jersey to Columbus on March 1, 2017 in exchange for Dalton Prout. The 6-foot-2, 216-pound native of Kitchener, Ontario, added one assist in two Stanley Cup playoff games with the Blue Jackets. Quincey owns 155 points (36-119=155), a plus-12 rating, 520 PIM, 741 hits and 744 blocked shots in 568 career contests during parts of 12 NHL seasons with Detroit, Los Angeles, Colorado, New Jersey and Columbus (2005-17).

Quincey played for Canada at the 2012 World Championship and was named to the 2005 Ontario Hockey League (OHL) Second All-Star Team. He is a co-founder of the House 9 Hockey Foundation, a non-profit organization with the goal of making the game of hockey more accessible to children regardless of their financial circumstance. The left-shot defenseman was originally selected by Detroit in the fourth round (132nd overall) of the 2003 NHL Entry Draft.
