Top Wild News

  • Wild's Adam Benak: Adds three points

    Benak scored a goal and added two assists in OHL Brantford's 6-2 win over Saginaw on Sunday.

    Benak is lighting up the OHL to the tune of 27 points in 14 games this season. He's earned seven points over his last four contests as he continues to be productive for the league-leading Bulldogs. The 18-year-old is making the Wild look good for getting him with just a fourth-round pick in 2025.

  • Wild's Joel Eriksson Ek: Dishes two helpers

    Eriksson Ek logged two assists, including one on the power play, and added two shots on net and two hits in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Canucks.

    This was Eriksson Ek's second multi-point effort of the season. He has yet to really get into a groove on offense -- his season-opening three-game point streak is his longest of the year so far. The 28-year-old center is at two goals, seven helpers, 39 shots on net, 27 hits, eight PIM and a minus-7 rating through 13 outings as a regular in the Wild's top six.

  • Wild's Ryan Hartman: Deposits empty-netter

    Hartman scored an empty-net goal and added two hits in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Canucks.

    Hartman put the finishing touch on the Wild's first win since Oct. 20 versus the Rangers. The 31-year-old forward has done well for a middle-six forward so far, earning four goals, two assists, 36 shots on net, 11 hits, 12 blocked shots and a minus-4 rating over 13 contests. Hartman has primarily played on the third line and second power-play unit, though he occasionally shuffles into a more prominent role whenever the lines get blended.

  • Wild's Marco Rossi: Restores lead with goal

    Rossi scored a goal on three shots, added two PIM and levied three hits in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Canucks.

    Rossi has two goals and five assists during his five-game point streak. His tally Saturday put the Wild up 2-1 in the second period, and they maintained a lead the rest of the way. The 24-year-old center is at three goals, nine helpers, 22 shots on net, nine hits, six blocked shots and a minus-5 rating over 12 appearances this season. He should continue to provide steady offense as long as he stays on the top line.

  • Wild's Vinnie Hinostroza: Two points in third period of win

    Hinostroza scored a goal on three shots, added an assist and went plus-2 in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Canucks.

    Hinostroza's offense is starting to warm up. He's earned four points this season, and they've all come within the last five games, a span in which he also has six shots on net and a plus-1 rating. The 31-year-old forward has occupied a middle-six role, and his slow start on offense cost him a job on the second power-play unit, though he could get it back if he continues to chip in semi-regularly. He's produced 13 shots on net, 13 hits and a minus-5 rating across 13 outings this season.

  • Wild's Jonas Brodin: One of each Saturday

    Brodin scored a goal, dished an assist, blocked four shots and went plus-2 in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Canucks.

    This was Brodin's first multi-point effort of the season, and it snapped a five-game skid. The 32-year-old defenseman sees plenty of ice time, but he's in a shutdown role, so fantasy managers shouldn't expect him to be a regular contributor on offense. Brodin is at two goals, two assists, eight shots on net, 24 blocks and an even plus-minus rating across 12 appearances while playing in the Wild's top four.

  • Wild's Vladimir Tarasenko: Three-point effort in win

    Tarasenko scored a power-play goal on two shots, added two assists and logged two hits in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Canucks.

    Tarasenko snapped a six-game point drought with this burst of offense in his best outing of the year. He opened the scoring at 15:53 of the first period before helping out on goals by Marco Rossi and Jonas Brodin later in the contest. Tarasenko has two tallies, six helpers, 22 shots on net, 10 hits and a minus-6 rating through 13 appearances this season. He should continue to see time in a middle-six role with a spot on the first power-play unit.

  • Wild's Filip Gustavsson: Ends skid in Saturday's win

    Gustavsson allowed two goals on 28 shots in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Canucks.

    Gustavsson had lost his previous four outings (0-3-1), but he was able to quiet an injury-riddled Canucks team. It was also the first time since his Oct. 20 win over the Rangers that he allowed fewer than three goals. It's been a rough go of things for Gustavsson in 2025-26, with a 3-6-1 record, a 3.23 GAA and an .895 save percentage over 10 appearances. However, he'll continue to be the starter, as Jesper Wallstedt hasn't done anything to push for a larger role. The Wild host the Predators on Tuesday.

  • Wild's Filip Gustavsson: Gets starting nod Saturday

    Gustavsson will defend the home goal versus Vancouver on Saturday, Joe Smith of The Athletic reports.

    Gustavsson will attempt to get back in the win column as he is 0-3-1 in his last four starts. Overall, the Swedish netminder is 2-6-1 with an Opening Night shutout, a 3.37 GAA and an .892 save percentage. The Canucks are having trouble finding the back of the net, as they are tied for 26th in NHL scoring with the Wild, averaging a paltry 2.58 goals per game.

  • Wild's Mats Zuccarello: Could return next week

    Per Jessi Pierce of NHL.com, Zuccarello (lower body) could return in the next week or so, according to head coach John Hynes on Friday.

    It was reported Tuesday that Zuccarello was 2-4 weeks away from returning to game action, but that timetable has been moved up. Zuccarello has dealt with a lower-body issue since training camp and has yet to play a game in 2025-26. Upon his return to the lineup, look for Zuccarello to have a spot as a top-six forward, with Marcus Johansson likely moving down to the third line. The 38-year-old Zuccarello had 19 goals and 35 assists in 69 regular-season games in 2024-25.

  • Wild's Filip Gustavsson: Beaten by Penguins

    Gustavsson stopped 30 of 33 shots in Thursday's 4-1 loss to the Penguins. The fourth goal was an empty-netter late in the third period.

    There wasn't much Gustavsson could've done on any of the three goals he allowed -- one was a tip-in, another one came on the power play, and the remaining one was a furious slap shot. The 27-year-old has been slumping of late, going 0-3-1 over his last four starts while allowing at least three goals in each outing during that stretch.

  • Wild's Kirill Kaprizov: Scores vs. Pittsburgh

    Kaprizov scored a goal in Thursday's 4-1 loss to the Penguins.

    Kaprizov opened the scoring for the Wild at the 10:16 mark of the first period with a tip-in, but that would be all the offense Minnesota would account for in the game. Kaprizov has been producing at an elite level after signing a mega extension in late September and is up to seven goals and 16 points through 12 games. He's also riding a four-game point streak with two goals and four helpers in that span.

  • Wild's Cameron Butler: Sent down Thursday

    Butler (undisclosed) was activated from the non-roster injured list and assigned to AHL Iowa on Thursday.

    Butler spent the first few weeks of the regular season on injured reserve, and his assignment to the minors suggests that he's back to full health heading into November. He made 37 regular-season appearances with AHL Cleveland last year, recording two goals, an assist and 74 PIM.

  • Wild's Filip Gustavsson: Tending twine Thursday

    Gustavsson will draw the home start against the Penguins on Thursday, Joe Smith of The Athletic reports.

    Gustavsson is in the midst of a cold spell, going 0-2-1 with a 4.04 GAA and an .874 save percentage over his last three outings, but he'll draw a second consecutive start Thursday. The Penguins are averaging 3.64 goals per game this year, which is tied for the fifth-best mark in the league.

  • Wild's Marcus Johansson: Pots power-play goal in OT loss

    Johansson scored a power-play goal on two shots in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Jets.

    Johansson has now scored four goals, including three on the power play, over his last three games. The 35-year-old winger is rolling despite playing on the second power-play unit, though his recent play has earned him more even-strength ice time as well. He's at five goals, eight points, 18 shots on net and a minus-2 rating through 11 outings. Given his age and his usual level of production, Johansson is a sell-high candidate in fantasy.

  • Wild's Michael Milne: Placed on waivers

    Milne (undisclosed) was placed on waivers by the Wild on Wednesday.

    Milne began the regular season on non-roster injured reserve due to an unspecified issue, but he is ready to resume playing. He made his NHL debut last year, posting three hits in 6:34 of ice time against Dallas on Nov. 16, and he will head to AHL Iowa if he clears waivers.
