The 22-year-old defenseman has played in 18 games with the Wild over the previous two seasons including 15 games during the 2021-22 campaign.

Now Addison, who was drafted by Pittsburgh in 2018 and traded to the Wild on Feb. 10, 2020, now is among the top six defensemen in Minnesota. He is projected to be on the third pairing with Alex Goligoski.

Addison is coming off a season in which he had seven goals and 34 points in 43 games with the Iowa Wild. He totaled 56 points over the past two years in Des Moines.

The next player is not really a newcomer to Minnesota but he will be put into a key role to start the season.
