Wild's Nolan Stevens: Flipped in minor-league deal

Stevens was acquired by Minnesota from St. Louis in a swap for Will Bitten on Wednesday.

Stevens has garnered a solid 12 points in 20 games for AHL Springfield this year but has yet to make his NHL debut. The 25-year-old center will be a restricted free agent this offseason, so he'll have to the end of the year to convince Minnesota to keep him around beyond the 2021-22 campaign.
