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.

Wild's Michael Milne: Dealing with undisclosed injury
Rotowire
Milne was designated for non-roster injured reserve with an undisclosed injury Tuesday, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.
Milne made his NHL debut last season, logging 6:34 of ice time against the Stars on Nov. 16 while tallying three hits. Even without his injury concern, the 23-year-old winger was a long shot to make the Opening Night roster. When given the green light to play, Milne figures to link up with AHL Iowa for the upcoming campaign -- though he could earn a call-up at some point down the road.

Rotowire
Milne was elevated from AHL Iowa on Wednesday.
Milne likely won't immediately jump into the lineup versus the Canadiens on Thursday unless there is an injury or illness among the forward group. During his previous NHL stints this year, the 22-year-old winger was a press box observer as a healthy scratch. In the minors, Milne has been significantly more productive with four goals and four assists in 10 games with Iowa.

Wild's Michael Milne: Injured to begin camp
Rotowire
Milne (undisclosed) is listed as injured on the Wild's training camp roster.
Milne also began last season injured, which limited him to 40 games with AHL Iowa in 2023-24. He produced a solid eight goals and 13 assists. The 21-year-old winger isn't a pedigree prospect, so he'll likely spend most of 2024-25 in the AHL once again.
