Saw Minnesota reporters kind of upset about the risk of losing him. Also saw the suggestion that he has awful advanced stats? I'm not sure but sounds like there's a lot to like.
Among regular Wild d-men this year, Soucy ranked:

- last in Rel CF% (-4.24)
- last in Rel FF% (-3.41)
- last in Rel SF% (-3.48)
- last in Rel SCF% (-3.37)
- 2nd last in Rel HDCF% (-2.29)
- 2nd last in Rel xGF% (-2.70)

He did provide some legitimate value on the PK, but still ranked 5th among Wild D-men in PK time. Plus you don't want to waste a roster spot on a guy who only provides some value on the PK but is a complete trainwreck 5v5
