Vanek Watch: Home For The Winter

After a year of watching him move around the league, the Thomas Vanek watch has officially come to an end. And with no surprise, it ends in the place Vanek calls home: Minnesota.

Vanek's deal is worth a $6.5M cap hit over the three seasons, and does include a no trade clause.

Last season Vanek scored a combined 27 goals and 41 assists for three different teams (Buffalo, NY Islanders, and Montreal) in the regular season.

We will have more on this signing in the coming days, but for now you can rejoice that Vanek is coming home.
