Wild's David Spacek: Back in AHL
Spacek was reassigned to AHL Iowa on Saturday.
Spacek was a healthy scratch Tuesday versus San Jose. The 22-year-old had six assists in 12 AHL games before his recall. The Wild recalled Lianm Ohgren and Tyler Pitlick in a corresponding move.

Wild's Tyler Pitlick: Recalled from AHL
The Wild recalled Pitlick from AHL Iowa on Saturday.
Pitlick was sent to iowa when the Wild needed to find a roster spot for Mats Zuccarello a week ago. Pitlick is without a point in nine NHL games this season, though he does have 24 hits and six blocked shots. The Wild sent David Spacek to AHL Iowa in a corresponding move.

Wild's Jake Middleton: Doubtful Saturday
Middleton (illness) is not expected to play in Saturday's home game versus Anaheim, per Michael Russo of The Athletic.
This will be the third game in a row that Middleton will miss, if he is unable to go. Look for David Jiricek to remain in the lineup. Middleton is without a point in 12 games this season.

Wild's Liam Ohgren: Back in NHL
The Wild recalled Ohgren from AHL Iowa on Saturday, according to Michael Russo of The Athletic.
Ohgren was unable to hit the scoresheet in five NHL games this season before his demotion. The 21-year-old will replace Marco Rossi (lower body) on the roster, but he could be the 13th forward Saturday versus the Ducks.

Wild's Marco Rossi: Placed on injured reserve
Rossi (lower body) was placed on injured reserve Friday.
Head coach John Hynes revealed earlier Friday that Rossi is considered week-to-week, so it isn't very surprising to see the 24-year-old officially land on injured reserve. Ryan Hartman and Joel Eriksson Ek will likely take on top-six roles in Rossi's absence, while Danila Yurov should see increased opportunities.

Wild's Jake Middleton: Deemed game-time call for Saturday
Middleton (illness) is considered a game-time decision for Saturday's matchup against the Ducks, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.
Middleton has missed Minnesota's last two games due to an illness. Head coach John Hynes said Friday that Middleton is still dealing with some effects of the illness, so the team's medical staff will evaluate him further Saturday before determining his status against Anaheim. If Middleton is unable to play, David Jiricek will likely remain in the lineup for a third consecutive game.

Wild's Marco Rossi: Considered week-to-week
Rossi (lower body) was labeled week-to-week by head coach John Hynes on Friday, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.
Rossi's absence will create a huge hole down the middle of the Wild's lineup. Ryan Hartman and Joel Eriksson Ek figure to take on top-six roles while Danila Yurov could see a significant uptick in opportunities. The 24-year-old Rossi has managed just four goals in 17 outings, which would see him miss the 20-goal threshold even without an injury absence.

Wild's Matt Boldy: Pots lone goal in loss
Boldy scored a power-play goal on five shots in Tuesday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Sharks.
Boldy has been good lately with four goals and an assist over his last four games. The Wild have scored 11 times in that span, so the winger is getting involved regularly to help his team. Overall, Boldy is up to nine goals, 18 points (nine on the power play), 60 shots on net, 11 hits, 10 blocked shots and a minus-2 rating over 18 appearances. He's never had a point-per-game campaign, but at 24 years old, it's possible he's capable of more offense than we've seen so far. Boldy will remain a key part of the Wild's offense in the top six and on the first power-play unit.

Wild's Filip Gustavsson: Loses in overtime
Gustavsson stopped 16 of 18 shots in Tuesday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Sharks.
Gustavsson was given a couple of games off to reset following a 2-2-1 stretch in which he allowed 15 goals on 143 shots (.895 save percentage). The 27-year-old wasn't able to make a one-goal lead stick in this contest, as Will Smith scored a power-play tally in the third period and Collin Graf netted the game-winner in overtime. Gustavsson is down to 4-7-2 with a 3.09 GAA and an .896 save percentage over 13 outings. It's too soon to say Gustavsson is losing his grip on the starting job, but Jesper Wallstedt has won his last two starts and could start earning extra playing time soon. The Wild will need both goalies this weekend in a pair of tough home matchups, as they are set to host the Ducks on Saturday and the Golden Knights on Sunday.

Wild's Carter Klippenstein: Deals three helpers
Klippenstein recorded three assists in WHL Brandon's 7-4 loss to Red Deer on Tuesday.
Klippenstein has heated up in November, earning a goal and seven assists over his last four games. He had just six points in nine outings in October. The Wild prospect doesn't rely on offense to make an impact, instead playing a well-rounded game at the best of times, as he is currently.

Wild's Filip Gustavsson: First off at morning skate
Gustavsson is slated to start at home against the Sharks on Tuesday, per Joe Smith of The Athletic.
Gustavsson is 2-2-1 in his last five appearances, stopping 128 of 143 shots during that stretch (.895 save percentage). The Swedish goaltender will have his hands full Tuesday against a San Jose club that is 4-0-1 in its last five games, with impressive wins over Colorado, Seattle, Winnipeg and Florida. The Sharks are tied for eighth in the NHL with 3.31 goals per game this season.

Wild's Jake Middleton: Not playing Tuesday
Middleton (illness) won't play against San Jose on Tuesday, Jessi Pierce of NHL.com reports.
Middleton didn't participate in Tuesday's morning skate and will miss his second straight game. He has contributed one assist, 14 shots on goal, 29 blocked shots and 26 hits across 16 appearances this season. Due to Middleton's absence, David Jiricek will be in the lineup for Tuesday's matchup against the Sharks.

Wild's David Spacek: Elevated from minors
Spacek was recalled from AHL Iowa on Monday.
Spacek will provide depth on Minnesota's blue line since Jake Middleton is dealing with an illness, and it's unclear if the latter will be ready for Tuesday's home game against the Sharks. Spacek, a fifth-round pick in 2022, has yet to make his NHL debut. The right-shot defenseman has six helpers and a minus-1 rating across 12 appearances with the minor-league squad this year.

Wild's Marcus Johansson: Posts helper in 1,000th game
Johansson logged an assist in Sunday's 2-0 win over the Flames.
Sunday marked Johansson's 1,000th NHL regular-season game. The 35-year-old marked the occasion by setting up Matt Boldy's second-period tally. Johansson is on a nine-game point streak (five goals, six helpers) and has produced a total of 15 points, 27 shots on net and a plus-4 rating through 17 contests this season. That level of offense is a bit of a surprise, but it's earned him steady minutes on the Wild's second line.

Wild's Joel Eriksson Ek: Contributes pair of assists
Eriksson Ek logged two assists, three shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Sunday's 2-0 win over the Flames.
Eriksson Ek's goal drought reached seven games, but he was able to help out on tallies by Matt Boldy and Kirill Kaprizov. Consistency hasn't been a big part of Eriksson Ek's production this season, as he has created just one point streak that has reached three games. The veteran center is up to two goals, nine helpers, 51 shots on net, 32 hits, 12 blocked shots and a minus-5 rating over 17 appearances in a top-six role.

Wild's Kirill Kaprizov: Fills empty cage Sunday
Kaprizov scored an empty-net goal on two shots, blocked two shots and added two PIM in Sunday's 2-0 win over the Flames.
Kaprizov's point streak is up to four games. He's had three streaks of that length this season, as he continues to be one of the most consistent forwards in the league. He's produced 10 goals, 22 points, 52 shots and a minus-3 rating over 17 appearances. Kaprizov has 100-point potential if he can stay healthy, and it wouldn't be shocking for him to finish above the 40-goal mark as well, considering he did that in three of his first five campaigns.

Wild's Matt Boldy: One of each in narrow win
Boldy scored a goal on three shots, added an assist, blocked two shots and went plus-2 in Sunday's 2-0 win over the Flames.
Boldy has two multi-point efforts over his last three games. His hot start to the season faded in late October, but he looks to be getting back on track, and with less dependence on power-play production to boot. The 24-year-old winger is up to eight goals, nine helpers, 55 shots, 11 hits, 10 blocks and a minus-2 rating across 17 appearances this season. Boldy will continue to be a big part of the Wild's offense in a top-six role.
