See the response from his agent.
«The only time Marc-André almost became a free agent was after his trade from Chicago to Minnesota, and we ended up signing a two-year contract with the Wild at the draft.
Marc-André was five or six days away from being completely free. At the time, we did not discuss with any other club (other than Minnesota).
Marc-André and Bill Guerin (GM of the Wild) have a very good relationship and they are close. [...] Marc wanted to be in Minnesota.»
