@RussoHockey Zero even-strength points in the series for Kirill Kaprizov. He has gone 313 minutes, 8 seconds without a point. That’s 15 consecutive periods without a point, plus 12:20 of the second overtime of Game 1.
First time in his career he has gone 4 straight games without a point

@jessi_pierce Eriksson Ek has not skated yet. Still “being evaluated” and tbd whether he will travel to Dallas for Game 5 #mnwild

@sarah__mclellan Joel Eriksson Ek has not returned for the start of the second period.

@Tramyers_NHL Eriksson Ek played the opening shift for the Wild and hasn't been back since.
— NHL Game Day News (@GameDayNewsNHL) Apr 21, 2023
@Tramyers_NHL John Klingberg, Ryan Hartman and Joel Eriksson Ek all participating in warmups for the Wild.

@SaadYousuf126 John Klingberg is warming up for the Wild. He missed the first two games of this series with an injury. https://t.co/sBxSwrSY9V

@JoeSmithNHL No update on Ek and Hartman, though Evason said hopefully they’re back tonight.

@DaneMizutani Ryan Reaves gets a 10-minute misconduct. The officials are doing their best to keep this game from going off the rails. #MNWild
— NHL Game Day News (@GameDayNewsNHL) Apr 20, 2023
@DaneMizutani Kirill Kaprizov and Max Domi both assessed 10-minute misconducts so they'll hit the showers early. #MNWild
— NHL Game Day News (@GameDayNewsNHL) Apr 20, 2023
@RussoHockey So, if you're scoring at home, Gus Nyquist has played 5 games for the #mnwild (3 in the regular season and two in the playoffs) and has points in each game
— NHL Game Day Stats (@GameDayStatsNHL) Apr 19, 2023
@JoeSmithNHL Ryan Hartman is out tonight. Looks like Gaudreau and Johansson are on ice for warmups
— NHL Game Day News (@GameDayNewsNHL) Apr 19, 2023
@RussoHockey Oskar Sundqvist looks like he’ll make his #mnwild playoff debut. At least not staying on with scratches Goligoski, Walker, Klingberg, Eriksson Ek. Johansson and Gaudreau were the only forwards who didn’t skate and they’ve been banged up
— NHL Game Day News (@GameDayNewsNHL) Apr 19, 2023
@JoeSmithNHL Heard John Klingberg isn’t playing tonight, so would think Merrill paired w Faber again #mnwild.
— NHL Game Day News (@GameDayNewsNHL) Apr 19, 2023
@JoeSmithNHL Ek and Hartman out here for skate. Sammy Walker too.
— NHL Game Day News (@GameDayNewsNHL) Apr 19, 2023
@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.
— NHL Game Day Stats (@GameDayStatsNHL) Apr 18, 2023
@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.
— NHL Game Day News (@GameDayNewsNHL) Apr 16, 2023
@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
— NHL Game Day News (@GameDayNewsNHL) Apr 16, 2023
@JoeSmithNHL Kirill Kaprizov: “I feel like I’m starting to get back to myself.” #mnwild star feeling good after playing few games since injury
— NHL Game Day News (@GameDayNewsNHL) Apr 15, 2023
@RussoHockey Joel Eriksson Ek skated on his own for the first time this morning. #mnwild
— NHL Game Day News (@GameDayNewsNHL) Apr 15, 2023
@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
— NHL Game Day News (@GameDayNewsNHL) Apr 13, 2023
@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.
