"Nate Prosser, who has been one of the Minnesota Wild's best defensemen in the team's recent 3-1-1 stretch, has signed a two-year extension, general manager Chuck Fletcher announced today.
The 25-year-old, who has six assists in 23 games for the team this season, was due to become a restricted free agent this summer. Prosser has given the team a physical presence in its own zone and has consistently made smart, low-risk decisions with the puck. "
