JUNE 9 • HOCKEYFEED.COM

Staying in Minnesota McCarron signed a six-year, $19.8 million contract with the Wild on Tuesday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.

Impact After being dealt from Nashville to Minnesota prior to the trade deadline in March, McCarron supplied three goals, five points, 23 shots, 40 hits, 17 blocks and a minus-1 rating while averaging 12:40 of ice time over 20 regular-season games. Now that the 31-year-old has some security in the form of a long-term deal, McCarron is set to be a staple in the Wild's bottom six going forward. The 6-foot-6 forward won't warrant much attention in the fantasy realm, but he should continue to be a steady source of hits if managers need help in that category.

Tallies game-winner Tuesday McCarron scored a goal and blocked two shots in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Stars in Game 5.

Impact McCarron's goal at 7:47 of the third period stood as the game-winner. The veteran center has earned two goals, five shots on net, 14 hits, five blocked shots and a plus-1 rating over five contests in this first-round playoff series so far. McCarron was bumped up to the third line for Game 5, as Danila Yurov and Nico Sturm came out of the lineup to make room for wingers Mats Zuccarello and Yakov Trenin each returning from upper-body injuries. McCarron's spot in the lineup isn't in jeopardy, but he's firmly a bottom-six forward.

Scores in Game 3 loss McCarron scored a goal and added three hits in Wednesday's 4-3 double-overtime loss to the Stars in Game 3.

Impact McCarron's goal put the Wild ahead 3-2 late in the second period, but they couldn't maintain the lead. This was McCarron's first career playoff goal -- prior to this postseason, he had never recorded a point in nine playoff outings over three different campaigns. The 31-year-old was able to produce 17 points over 79 regular-season contests between the Wild and the Predators, and the Wild traded for him to stabilize their fourth line, so he should see plenty of playing time in that role.
