MINNEAPOLIS -- Last week, it looked like the Minnesota Wild were done with free agency. They weren't finished, though, and neither is former Phoenix Coyote Owen Nolan.
General manager Doug Risebrough desired another veteran for the locker room and a rugged presence with a scorer's touch up front.
He offered Nolan a 5.5 million dollar, two-year contract and waited to hear from the 36-year-old.
Nolan played last season with Calgary and previously with Phoenix and San Jose.
Nolan notched 16 goals in each of the past two seasons after two years off because of a knee injury and the league-wide lockout.
