The Minnesota Wild have signed Sam Anas to a two-year deal, the team announced Friday.
Anas was named an All-American after completing his junior season netting 24 goals and 26 assists. He’s forgoing his senior season.
Despite being undersized (5-8, 170 pounds), Anas can flat out fly on the ice: Here’s a goal from the NCAA East Regional last month in New York.
OH MY!!!!

This is the third college hockey product that the Wild have signed to an entry-level contract overt the last month; Alex Tuch and Mario Lucia were the first to sign.
