It was reported Wednesday that Nate Prosser had decided to take a second stab at signing with the Blues, this time for two years and an NHL cap hit of $650,000 annually. It’s a two-way deal that could very well land Prosser in the minors, but even so, his minor league salary is still $400,000, so he won’t be starving, even if he does spend time in the Always Hungry League.
Prosser first tried to sign with St. Louis in 2014, only to be hilariously stolen back by Mike Yeo’s Wild when the depth defenseman was placed on waivers at the conclusion of training camp that season.
