Thomas Vanek on Wild: “For me the biggest thing was Minnesota just wasn’t a good fit"

per NBCSports.com:

Two years ago, Thomas Vanek said signing for his hometown Wild was “beyond my wildest dreams.”

Now?

Slightly different tune.

“For me the biggest thing was Minnesota just wasn’t a good fit,” Vanek told the Buffalo News over the weekend. “It is what it is. There’s no rhyme or reason for it. It didn’t work out.”

If Vanek supplemented his skillset with a third of Parise's work ethic and toughness, he would be one of the top players in the league, year in and year out.
