@JoeSmithNHL John Klingberg on ice for #mnwild optional practice
— NHL Game Day News (@GameDayNewsNHL) Apr 18, 2023
@DanMyers Believe this marks the first time since Dec. 20, 2016 that Spurgeon has taken two minor penalties in the same game. Which is remarkable, considering how many minutes he plays.

@Tramyers_NHL Injured players John Klingberg, Oskar Sundqvist and Joel Eriksson Ek already listed among the Wild scratches.
— NHL Game Day News (@GameDayNewsNHL) Apr 17, 2023
@DaneMizutani Here we go. Filip Gustavsson leads the #MNWild onto the ice. Jake Oettinger leads the #Stars onto the ice.
Joel Eriksson Ek is not in warmups so he won't play tonight. The fact we were even talking about as a possibility speaks to his toughness.
— NHL Game Day News (@GameDayNewsNHL) Apr 17, 2023
@sarah__mclellan Joel Eriksson Ek is on the ice in Dallas. #mnwild coach Dean Evason said he isn't going to divulge lineup decisions.
— NHL Game Day News (@GameDayNewsNHL) Apr 17, 2023
@sarah__mclellan John Klingberg didn’t practice today after suffering a lower-body issue at practice yesterday. “We’ll see,” is his Game 1 status, coach Dean Evason said. Joel Eriksson Ek skated again today and will go to Dallas.

@jessi_pierce Jon Merrill pairing up with Brock Faber today as John Klingberg is MIA.
Everyone else accounted for.
Told JEEk skated on his own again this morning. #mnwild

@RussoHockey Joel Eriksson Ek skated on his own for the first time this morning. #mnwild

@sarah__mclellan Marcus Johansson is practicing today with the #mnwild, back in his usual spot alongside Matt Boldy and Frederick Gaudreau.
Oskar Sundqvist (lower-body injury) is also on the ice in a non-contact jersey.
— NHL Game Day News (@GameDayNewsNHL) Apr 15, 2023
@NHLdotcom Frederick Gaudreau signed a five-year, $10.5 million contract with the Minnesota Wild on Thursday. The 29-year-old forward could have become an unrestricted free agent after the season.https://t.co/dTZk6SU0d9

@sarah__mclellan Marcus Johansson is sore after taking that cross-check last game but didn't break anything. #mnwild coach Dean Evason said he's hopeful Johansson will play in Game 1.
As for Sam Steel, he's no longer sick but the team didn't want him to play after dealing with that.
— NHL Game Day News (@GameDayNewsNHL) Apr 13, 2023
@RussoHockey Not playing tonight for #mnwild: Kaprizov, Brodin, Spurgeon, Boldy, Zuccarello, Johansson, Steel, injured Eriksson Ek and Sundqvist and suspended Hartman.
— NHL Game Day News (@GameDayNewsNHL) Apr 13, 2023
@jessi_pierce Hartman gets a 1-game suspension for his interference on Ehlers.
(ie he will miss tomorrow in Nashville but returns for the playoffs) #mmwild
— NHL Game Day News (@GameDayNewsNHL) Apr 12, 2023
@NHLPlayerSafety Minnesota’s Ryan Hartman will have a hearing today for Interference against Winnipeg’s Nikolaj Ehlers.
— NHL Game Day News (@GameDayNewsNHL) Apr 12, 2023
@DaneMizutani Oh that sure looked like it could be broken ribs for Marcus Johansson. Just a straight cross check from Neal Pionk. Unreal. #MNWild
— NHL Game Day News (@GameDayNewsNHL) Apr 12, 2023
@RussoHockey With the math saying the #mnwild are finishing third in division, sounds like the team left Kaprizov, Spurgeon, Brodin and Zuccarello back in Minnesota.
— NHL Game Day News (@GameDayNewsNHL) Apr 10, 2023
@DaneMizutani #MNWild have recalled top prospect Marco Rossi as well as Nic Petan. They were both in Chicago with the minor league squad so they’ll stay there. Will be interesting to see how everything plays out from here.
@RussoHockey #mnwild sign 2-time Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year Brock Faber to 3-year, $2.775M EL contract. $92,500 signing bonuses, can achieve $250K per in performance A bonuses (so basically one bonus)Burns 1st year, will be on Wild’s plane to Chicagohttps://t.co/YwO9V3KVTl
@sarah__mclellan Kirill Kaprizov will return tomorrow vs. St. Louis. #mnwild not sure if Gustav Nyquist will play. If not, the team will go with seven defensemen, coach Dean Evason said.
@RussoHockey Joel Eriksson Ek is week to week with a lower body injury. Absolutely devastating to a team with little center depth. Oskar Sundqvist (lower body) is day to day.
Again, sounds like Kirill Kaprizov is on verge of return. Wild will need a forward from Iowa
@sarah__mclellan After the game, #mnwild coach Dean Evason said Joel Eriksson Ek and Oskar Sundqvist will be evaluated and the team will figure out where they're at tomorrow. Both have lower-body injuries.
@RussoHockey If Gustav Nyqyist handles today’s contact and tomorrow’s well, he’s expected to make his #mnwild debut Saturday vs. #stlblues. Kirill Kaprizov is expected to play one or two of the final games next week. Same lineup tonight except Fleury starts, meaning Goligoski and Addison sit
@jessi_pierce Matt Boldy is a 30-goal goal scorer and the #mnwild are up 3-2 with 40.6 to play in the second
— NHL Game Day Stats (@GameDayStatsNHL) Apr 4, 2023
@sarah__mclellan #mnwild coach Dean Evason said the team isn’t sure yet if Ryan Reaves and Jonas Brodin will play tonight vs. Vegas. Both skating this morning.
@JoeSmithNHL Dean Evason said Kirill Kaprizov is “close” to starting to skate for first time since injury #mnwild

@mnwildPR Making 42 saves in the win over Colorado, goaltender Filip Gustavsson is now 9-1-4 with a 1.65 GAA and a .947 SV% in his last…
— NHL Game Day Stats (@GameDayStatsNHL) Mar 30, 2023
@corylav Frederick Gaudreau becomes the fifth player with two shorthanded goals in a game this season, and it's exactly all the players you'd expect in 2022-23. 😐 https://t.co/bI9XB2jACM
— NHL Game Day Stats (@GameDayStatsNHL) Mar 29, 2023
@sarah__mclellan Ryan Reaves won’t play tonight. He’s day-to-day with an upper-body injury. Brandon Duhaime is sick and also out. #mnwild will play 11 forwards and seven defensemen; John Klingberg returns. Filip Gustavsson starts in net vs. Colorado.
— NHL Game Day News (@GameDayNewsNHL) Mar 29, 2023
@mnwildPR Per #NHLStats, Matt Boldy became the fourth U.S born player to record three hat tricks before age 22 joining Jimmy Carson (7), Alex DeBrincat (4) and Jeremy Roenick (4). #mnwild

@RussoHockey John Klingberg looks like he’s back to good health in today’s #mnwild morning skate. Evason indicated the other night he’d skate today but wouldn’t play
— NHL Game Day News (@GameDayNewsNHL) Mar 27, 2023
@RussoHockey John Klingberg (upper body) is out tomorrow. Seeing the docs today. Kirill Kaprizov still not skating and not expected to be on next road trip to even practice, so he’s not close

— NHL Game Day News (@GameDayNewsNHL) Mar 21, 2023
@RussoHockey Steel, Walker, Merrill and Addison staying on extra with the assistant coaches, so the question marks may have been answered. Looks like the banged up or under the weather guys will be able to play for #mnwild
— NHL Game Day News (@GameDayNewsNHL) Mar 21, 2023
@sarah__mclellan Marcus Foligno returns tonight from a lower-body injury. He’ll play with Ryan Hartman and Mats Zuccarello. #mnwild are dealing with a couple question marks, coach Dean Evason said. Filip Gustavsson starts in net.

@RussoHockey Matt Boldy off a Marcus Johansson rebound 50 tics in. 1-0
Safe to say Boldy got the need to step up message without Kaprizov. Has been outstanding with Johansson
— NHL Game Day Stats (@GameDayStatsNHL) Mar 19, 2023
@RussoHockey Looks like Jon Merrill will be scratched today. He has taken 4 minors in the past 4 games, including 2 yesterday, 1 that resulted in a goal that helped turn Bruins game around.
Jonas Brodin, Jake Middleton and Brandon Duhaime look to be returning. Calen Addison scratched #mnwild
