"The razzing just kept going. But what did Nate Prosser expect?

Prosser signed his two-year contract extension with the Wild before the team's practice Monday at Xcel Energy Center. During practice, coach Mike Yeo called the team to center ice, then announced the deal.

Prosser knew what to expect. So he smiled when one teammate said cameras would need a wide-angle lens to capture Prosser's head from now on. Goalie Josh Harding asked if Prosser was taking the team charter to Columbus for Tuesday's game or if he was going to fly in a private jet.

"It's a good day for me and my family," Prosser said. "I was able to celebrate with them yesterday. There was a lot of excitement. I mean, my first time signing a one-way deal like this? It's a dream come true.""
