so couple of things going on.
so we are not skipping NaN here and passing directly to numpy which raises (would have to patch

so open to fixing this (PR welcome!) it might break some existing tests. |

Code Sample, a copy-pastable example if possible
Problem description
If I've read the documentation correctly I think min should return a series of the same length as the relevant axis of the dataframe, and especially with the skipna flag set as True (which is the default) NA values should be ignored in the calculation.
