DEFENSE-update

yep, the Wild signed the "Kassassinator";-)= Matt Kassian, the gentle Wild guy, to a 2 year, and
'Nate Prosser' to a one year contract.
With Staubitz, it does seem the Wild Defense is shaping up!

Prosser (2 yrs ago while at Colorado in college) gets hit, gets up and gets skating again. He is Minnesota born (1986), played 3 games last season with the Wild, had 1 assist and several PIMs.
On the other hand Boogaard went to the NY Rangers for 1.65 Mill for 4 years. Maybe there he will see more icetime?
In other news, it appears that SOCCERhas to contend with similarly 'blind' referees the Hockey world has battled against for a while
With, even in World Cup Soccer!, NO instant replay to confirm or deny a ref's call, made for some heartbreaking losses in South Africa! And some teams' losses caused political havoc at home ;-)! And I thoughts sports are NON political...guess not judging from the news.
