Stafford, 33, played for the New Jersey Devils the last two seasons. In 2018-2019, he posted 13 points, including five goals, in 57 games. He's a former first-round draft pick, going 13th overall to the Buffalo Sabres in 2004. Besides Buffalo and New Jersey, he's also played for Winnipeg and Boston over the course of his 13-year NHL career. In 841 total games, he has 196 goals and 232 assists.
A PTO is only for training camp. Stafford will have to impress the Wild's management in order to land a contract for the regular season.
