Top Mats Zuccarello News

  • Wild's Mats Zuccarello: Dishes pair of power-play helpers

    Zuccarello recorded two power-play assists and three shots on goal in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Avalanche in Game 3.

    Zuccarello has yet to be held off the scoresheet in his six playoff games this year. He's earned two goals and seven helpers, as well as 13 shots on net and an even plus-minus rating so far. The 38-year-old winger is likely to continue being a strong playmaker in a top-six role and on the power play.

  • Wild's Mats Zuccarello: Tallies late in loss

    Zuccarello scored a goal on two shots and went minus-2 in Sunday's 9-6 loss to the Avalanche in Game 1.

    Zuccarello has two goals and four helpers, as well as seven shots on net and a plus-1 rating, over four playoff contests. He missed three games due to an upper-body injury in the first round, but he's shown no signs of rust since returning to action in Game 5 against the Stars. There's no guarantee this second-round series will remain high scoring all the way through, but Zuccarello should be involved in a large part of what the Wild create.

  • Wild's Mats Zuccarello: Scores in return to lineup

    Zuccarello scored a goal on two shots in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Stars in Game 5.

    Zuccarello missed three games due to an upper-body injury. He made his presence felt early in his return, scoring at 3:51 of the first period to give the Wild an early 1-0 lead. He hadn't scored in his last six games, but he totaled 12 assists in that span and will likely lean more to the playmaking side on offense. Zuccarello had 54 points, including 21 on the power play, over 59 regular-season contests while primarily playing on the top line and first power-play unit.

    Following a three-game absence, Zuccarello appears poised to occupy a top-line role in Tuesday's matchup. He should also serve on the first power-play unit. Zuccarello has three assists, one shot on goal, one blocked shot and two hits in one appearance this postseason.

  • Wild's Mats Zuccarello: Practices, questionable for Game 5

    Zuccarello (upper body) is questionable for Game 5 against Dallas on Tuesday, Joe Smith of The Athletic reports.

    Zuccarello worked on the top power-play unit during Monday's practice, which is an encouraging sign for a potential return. However, it remains unclear if he will be back in the lineup after missing the last three games. Zuccarello contributed three assists, including two on the power play, in Minnesota's 6-1 win over Dallas in Game 1 on April 18.

  • Wild's Mats Zuccarello: Won't play Saturday

    Zuccarello (upper body) won't play in Game 4 versus Dallas on Saturday, per Dylan Loucks of The Hockey News.

    Zuccarello is set to miss his third consecutive game. He had 15 goals and 54 points in 59 regular-season outings in 2025-26. Zuccarello is likely to play on the top line when he's healthy, but for now, Bobby Brink is projected to serve in that role.

  • Wild's Mats Zuccarello: Game-time decision for Saturday

    Zuccarello (upper body) will be a game-time call for Game 4 versus Dallas on Saturday, Mike Morreale of NHL.com reports.

    Zuccarello skated prior to Friday's morning practice after missing Games 2 and 3. The diminutive winger had three helpers in the Wild's lone win in Game 1. He managed 15 goals and 54 points across 59 regular-season games in 2025-26. Look for Zuccarello to replace Bobby Brink on the top line, if he returns to the lineup Saturday.

  • Wild's Mats Zuccarello: Won't play Wednesday

    Zuccarello (upper body) won't play Wednesday in Game 3 versus the Stars.

  • Wild's Mats Zuccarello: Game-time call Wednesday

    Zuccarello (upper body) will be a game-time decision for Game 3 versus Dallas on Wednesday, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.

    Zuccarello missed Game 2 and could be in danger of sitting out another contest due to his upper-body injury. Over his last seven games, the 38-year-old Zuccarello has recorded six multi-point efforts, though he has found the back of the net just once.

  • Wild's Mats Zuccarello: Contending with upper-body injury

    Zuccarello is unavailable for Game 2 in Dallas on Monday due to an upper-body injury.

    Zuccarello is a big loss for the Wild's top six, as the Norwegian winger generated three helpers, including two on the power play, in Saturday's 6-1 win in Game 1. Vladimir Tarasenko will slot in on the top line alongside Kirill Kaprizov and Ryan Hartman, while Bobby Brink will suit up in Game 2 as a result of Zuccarello's absence. Zuccarello can be considered day-to-day ahead of Game 3 in Minnesota on Wednesday.

  • Wild's Mats Zuccarello: Three helpers in Game 1 win

    Zuccarello collected three assists, two on the power play, during the Wild's 6-1 win over the Stars in Game 1 of their first-round playoff series Saturday.

    The veteran winger had a hand in both of Joel Eriksson Ek's power-play tallies in the first and third periods, as well as an even-strength marker by Matt Boldy in the second. Zuccarello hasn't found the back of the net himself through six games in April, but he's racked up an incredible 12 helpers.

  • Wild's Mats Zuccarello: Back on first line

    Zuccarello (rest) was practicing in his normal first-line role Thursday, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.

    Zuccarello should be ready to go when the playoffs begin, considering he sat out the Wild's last three games. Despite featuring in just 59 regular-season contests this year, the veteran winger still managed to get over the 50-point threshold for the fifth straight season while chipping in 21 power-play points.

    Zuccarello (rest) won't play Tuesday versus the Ducks, Dylan Loucks of The Hockey News reports.

    Zuccarello will end up getting three games of rest ahead of the playoffs. Expect the 38-year-old to be in a top-line role and on the first power-play unit for Game 1 versus the Stars. He ends the regular season at 54 points in just 59 appearances.

    Zuccarello has 15 goals and 54 points in 59 outings in 2025-26. The 38-year-old is getting to rest as the Wild look ahead to the playoffs. Nico Sturm will likely draw into the lineup to accommodate Zuccarello's game off.
