Joel Eriksson Ek Ruled Out For Saturday
16 seconds agoMinnesota Wild center Joel Eriksson Ek (lower body) will miss Saturday's contest against Dallas. He suffered a lower-body injury on Thursday versus Montreal. Minnesota also lost Mats Zuccarello (lower body) against the Canadiens, resulting in a big line shake-up for Saturday's game. Frederick Gaudreau will skate in Eriksson Ek's usual role as the second-line center, Matt Boldy and Marcus Johansson will join the first line, and Marco Rossi will be dropping down to the third. Liam Ohgren and Michael Milne will be the new faces in the lineup, with the latter making his NHL debut.
