"Years of me campaigning for the #mnwild to sign Derek Stepan finally worked. Stepan is shadowing Bill Guerin and the Wild staff and the plan is for him to work with them in some capacity soon. Guerin/Stepan live by each other so they joked it's bring your neighbor to work day."
This development implies that Stepan's time on the ice has concluded.
Having been selected by the Rangers in 2008 as the 51st pick, Stepan boasts of 890 games with a tally of 515 points. His journey included stints with the Rangers, Coyotes, Senators, and Hurricanes.
Further details regarding his specific role in the organization are expected to be announced soon.
