Wild's Reese Johnson: Dealing with upper-body injury

Johnson is considered day-to-day with an upper-body injury, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports Monday.

Johnson has never played in more than 60 NHL games in a season and figures to remain a fringe roster player heading into the 2024-25 campaign. If the 26-year-old winger does make the Opening Night roster, which is far from guaranteed, he will slot into a bottom-six role without power-play ice time. As such, Johnson probably shouldn't be expected to offer much in the way of fantasy value this year.
