I'd keep him, but he's a 13th/14th guy for me who strictly draws in for 4th line energy assignments and who could also go down to the AHL at some point. Doubt he'd be claimed, and I wouldn't lose any sleep if he was.

Huska loved him and I believe pushed for him to be re-signed so they could have him in the room for the big club. Treliving even referenced this when describing the sort of teammate he is. Compared him to Engelland. He'll maybe play only against the Oilers this year, but Prout is on this team.

I'd be fine with it. I'd rather have Prout in the Bartkowski popcorn role and have Andersson, Valimaki and Kylington play big minutes in Stockton than waste one of them as the 7th defenseman.
