Colton Beck was captain with the University of Alaska-Fairbanks of the Western Collegiate Hockey Association in his final season, after four years. Since then, he spent time with the Idaho Steelheads of the ECHL before settling in with the Iowa Wild, where he has now seen ice-time across the four past seasons.
He doesn’t dominate offensive play, producing a steady twenty to thirty points per season in the AHL. Colton Beck represents a signing that is highly unlikely to ever see ice-time with the Minnesota Wild, unless of course they lose several players at once to illness or injury.
