Nate Prosser has been a consummate professional for the entirety of his NHL career with the Minnesota Wild. Despite always being on the cusp, he takes it in stride and does whatever is best for the team.
Prosser has only played one game this season, as a 7th defender required to fill a forward role. He played only 3 minutes in that one game, so his trip to Iowa was intended to get him some ice time.
It is encouraging that the team wants to keep him involved, and ready to step in at a moment’s notice.
