There, see? Nate Prosser is back with the Wild, so now everything is fine. Minnesota’s chi was just a bit off for the first two months of the season, but now that the Christmas gift that is “The Pride of Elk River” has been delivered (again) to the State of Hockey, the balance in our universe has been restored. Lest you forget, the Wild is now 2-0 since dumping Kyle Quincey and replacing him with Prosser. Coincidence? Me thinks… probably.
BUT… The Wild is legitimately back on track, playing well defensively these past two games in front of excellent goaltending, and it’s doing that despite the lack of Jared Spurgeon, who now apparently will be out for at least a month, per The Athletic.
