Bobby Brink - NHL News & Rumors

Signs one-year contract Brink signed a one-year, $2.75 million contract with Minnesota on Tuesday.

Impact Brink had 15 goals, 30 points, 104 shots on net and 80 hits over 68 regular-season appearances between Minnesota and Philadelphia in 2025-26. He will probably compete for a middle-six role with the Wild in the 2026-27 campaign.

Not qualified by Minnesota Brink was not tendered a qualifying offer by the Wild on Monday, making him an unrestricted free agent, per PuckPedia.

Impact The Wild have little cap space to work with and have several spots to fill on their roster, which probably explains why the team did not present Brink with a qualifying offer. The right-shot winger was dealt from Philadelphia to Minnesota at the 2026 trade deadline and posted a total of 15 goals, 30 points, 104 shots and 80 hits between the two teams in 2025-26. The 2026 free-agent class is slim, so Brink should have no issue finding a new team to sign with come July 1.

Chips in with helper Brink notched a power-play assist, three hits and two PIM in Wednesday's 4-3 double-overtime loss to the Stars in Game 3.

Impact Brink was out of the lineup for the series opener, but he's since played in two straight games. He doesn't appear to have the full trust of head coach John Hynes, and that could lead to Brink getting scratched once Mats Zuccarello (upper body) and Yakov Trenin (upper body) are healthy again. Brink produced 30 points, 104 shots on net, 80 hits and a minus-7 rating over 68 regular-season outings between Minnesota and Philadelphia.

Game-time call Brink (undisclosed) will be a game-time decision versus the Flyers on Thursday, Joe Smith of The Athletic reports.

Impact There is no update on Brink, but he is expected to play, if he feels good. Brink potted his first goal in three games for the Wild, after he was dealt at the trade deadline from Philadelphia. Brink has 14 goals and 13 assists across 58 games between Minnesota and Philadelphia this season. Should Brink not play, look for Nico Sturm or Robby Fabbri to take his place in the lineup.

Scores in big win Brink scored a goal and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 5-0 win over the Mammoth.

Impact This was Brink's third game with the Wild since he was traded from the Flyers. The Minnesota native was able to light the lamp in his first game for his hometown team. He's up to 14 goals, 27 points, 93 shots on net, 68 hits, 35 blocked shots and a minus-3 rating over 58 appearances this season. Brink has decent upside even in a third-line role for the Wild, so fantasy managers should at least keep an eye on him.
