Things got a little quiet there for a while with the Minnesota Wild after a flurry of deals rights out of the gate. The Wild’s mission is seemingly on hold for some of the bigger names they’ve been connected to, but it does look like the Wild have decided to rescue centerman Kyle Rau from Florida and bring him back home to Minnesota.
The Wild have agreed to a two-way deal with the Gopher alum, 1 year and reportedly worth $700,000/$200,000 for NHL/AHL. Rau was a 3rd round draft pick by the Florida Panthers in the 2011 NHL Entry Draft.
