Top Wild News

  • Wild's David Spacek: Recalled Wednesday

    Spacek was called up from AHL Iowa on Wednesday.

    The Wild may have an injury concern on their blue line, or they may just be adding Spacek to the roster ahead of a three-game road trip that begins Saturday in Buffalo. In any case, Spacek is with the big club. He has 19 points in 35 AHL contests.

  • Wild's Marcus Foligno: Strikes on late power play

    Foligno scored a power-play goal on three shots, added two PIM, doled out three hits and went minus-2 in Monday's 5-2 loss to the Devils.

    Foligno has two goals and two assists over his last seven games for his best stretch of offense this season. While his tally Monday came on the power play, it was his first goal with the man advantage since 2021-22, as he rarely sees time in that situation. He's at six points, 39 shots on net, 36 PIM, 119 hits, 36 blocked shots and a minus-11 rating through 37 contests overall.

  • Wild's Ryan Hartman: Tickles twine in loss

    Hartman scored a goal on two shots and blocked three shots in Monday's 5-2 loss to the Devils.

    Hartman has scored three times over the last four contests. The 31-year-old continues to see a boost in usage while Joel Eriksson Ek (lower body) works his way back into action. Hartman is up to 12 goals, 19 points, 82 shots on net, 51 blocked shots, 38 hits, 21 PIM and a minus-5 rating over 43 outings this season. While he's toned down the physicality a bit, Hartman remains a decent all-around depth forward for fantasy.

  • Wild's Jesper Wallstedt: Burned by Devils

    Wallstedt turned aside 24 shots in Monday's 5-2 loss to New Jersey.

    The game was close through two periods, but the Devils broke it open with three goals in just over two minutes during the third. Wallstedt didn't get a lot of help from his defense on the night -- all five New Jersey tallies came from in close, as Minnesota couldn't keep the front of the crease clear. It was Wallstedt's first regulation loss since Dec. 21, and on the season, he's gone 12-3-4 in 19 outings with a 2.42 GAA and a .921 save percentage.

  • Wild's Joel Eriksson Ek: Remains out against Devils

    Eriksson Ek (lower body) will not be in the lineup versus New Jersey on Monday, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.

    Eriksson Ek will miss his second straight game due to his lower-body problem, but he continues to be classified as day-to-day. Over his last 11 outings, the 28-year-old center generated four goals, four assists and 34 shots while averaging 18:26 of ice time. Once given the all-clear, Eriksson Ek should reclaim a spot in the top six for the Wild in addition to seeing power-play minutes.

  • Wild's Jesper Wallstedt: Tending twine against New Jersey

    Wallstedt will start Monday's home game against the Devils, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.

    Walllstedt has alternated starts with Filip Gustavsson for nearly a month, and that trend will continue Monday. Over Wallstedt's last five outings, he's gone 2-1-2 with a 3.12 GAA and .901 save percentage. The Devils are scoring 2.56 goals per game this season, which is the third-worst mark in the league.

  • Wild's Adam Benak: Hat trick, assist in win

    Benak scored three goals and added an assist in OHL Brantford's 7-3 win over Windsor on Sunday.

    Benak has put up six points over three games since he returned from the World Junior Championship. Representing Czechia, the center earned eight points (one goal, seven assists) over seven contests during the tournament, showcasing his playmaking skills. Benak now has 19 goals and 30 helpers through 29 appearances with the Bulldogs this season, and he should continue to excel for a competitive team.

  • Wild's Daemon Hunt: Nabs helper in overtime loss

    Hunt notched an assist in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Islanders.

    The assist was Hunt's first point in two games since he returned from missing 10 contests due to an undisclosed injury. The 23-year-old is filling a third-pairing role now that he's healthy again, giving him low fantasy upside. He's earned three assists, four shots on net, 20 blocked shots, 11 hits and a plus-4 rating over 14 outings this season.

  • Wild's Quinn Hughes: Contributes three more assists

    Hughes posted three assists, including one on the power play, and eight shots on goal in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Islanders.

    Hughes has earned 12 helpers over his last eight contests. The dynamic defenseman's offense has been as steady as ever with 16 points across 14 contests since the Wild acquired him from the Canucks. For the season, the 26-year-old is up to three goals, 36 assists, 18 power-play points, 111 shots on net, 46 blocked shots and a minus-3 rating through 40 appearances.

  • Wild's Ben Jones: Scores for first NHL point

    Jones scored a goal on two shots and added four hits in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Islanders.

    Jones, a seventh-round pick of the Golden Knights in 2017, has finally joined the ranks of NHL scorers. He opened the scoring Saturday at 2:51 of the first period with his first career goal and point, coming in his 49th appearance. The 26-year-old has added 19 shots on net, 51 hits and a minus-5 rating over 21 contests with the Wild this season. Jones looks to have a chance to play regularly as long as Joel Eriksson Ek (lower body) is out.

  • Wild's Kirill Kaprizov: Pots goal in overtime loss

    Kaprizov scored a goal on seven shots in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Islanders.

    Kaprizov had gone three games without a goal, matching his longest drought of the season. He's now at five points in as many contests in January. The superstar winger is up to 25 goals, 52 points, 165 shots on net and a plus-7 rating across 46 appearances. He's rarely held quiet for long, making him a reliable winger in all fantasy formats.

  • Wild's Matt Boldy: Tallies on power play

    Boldy scored a power-play goal on six shots and went minus-4 in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Islanders.

    This was a case of mixed results for Boldy. He was able to give the Wild a 2-1 lead in the first period, but he was on the ice for all of the Islanders' goals as well, taking his third minus rating in the last six games. The winger is now at 27 goals and 50 points through 46 outings this season, and he's added 152 shots on net, 32 blocked shots, 31 hits, 20 PIM and a plus-12 rating in a top-six role. He's now five goals away from setting a career high in that category.

  • Wild's Filip Gustavsson: Takes overtime loss

    Gustavsson stopped 23 of 27 shots in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Islanders.

    Gustavsson has dropped his last two outings and three of his last five. The 27-year-old was unable to protect a trio of one-goal leads, and after a clean third period, Simon Holmstrom's second goal of the game decided the contest 1:34 into the extra session. Gustavsson slipped to 14-9-5 with a 2.53 GAA and a .911 save percentage over 28 starts. The Wild have benefited from a goalie rotation this season, and that's expected to lead to Jesper Wallstedt in net Monday versus the Devils before Gustavsson would get the nod Thursday against the Jets to close out the Wild's current homestand.

  • Wild's Filip Gustavsson: Set to start Saturday

    Gustavsson is expected to start at home against the Islanders on Saturday, per Andrew Gross of Newsday.

    Gustavsson stopped 29 of 32 shots en route to a 4-2 loss to Los Angeles in his last start Monday. He has a 14-9-4 record, 2.48 GAA and .912 save percentage in 27 outings in 2025-26. The Islanders rank 23rd in goals per game with 2.86. They did earn a 9-0 blowout victory over New Jersey on Tuesday, but the Islanders followed that up with a 2-1 shootout loss to Nashville on Thursday.

  • Wild's Joel Eriksson Ek: Out of action Saturday

    Eriksson Ek (lower body) won't play Saturday versus the Islanders, Sarah McLellan of The Minnesota Star Tribune reports.

    Eriksson Ek will miss at least one game due to the injury. Ben Jones will draw into the Wild's lineup Saturday, but Ryan Hartman and Danila Yurov figure to get the biggest bumps in ice time to cover Eriksson Ek's absence. Eriksson Ek is considered day-to-day heading into Monday's game against the Devils.

  • Wild's Matt Kiersted: On waivers

    Kiersted was put on waivers Saturday, per Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet.

    Kiersted has an assist and five blocks in four appearances with Minnesota in 2025-26. If he clears waivers, he could return to AHL Iowa. Michael Russo of The Athletic reports that the 27-year-old defender may also remain with the big club for roster flexibility purposes. Kiersted has three assists in 23 outings with Iowa this campaign.

  • Wild's Tyler Pitlick: Remains on roster

    Pitlick is still on the Wild roster despite passing through waivers Friday, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.

    Pitlick will not require waivers for 30 days, should the Wild decide to send him to the AHL. He has one goal with 58 hits in 23 games this season.
