Michael Russo, a renowned journalist, shared that Derek Stepan is set to join the Minnesota Wild's front-office.
Stepan has had an impressive run, with 890 NHL games under his belt for teams like the Rangers, Coyotes, Senators, and Hurricanes. Drafted 51st overall in 2008, he's accumulated 515 career points in his career.
Newly-retired players often transition into advisory, consultancy, or scouting positions, but as of now, Stepan's role remains unknown.
