Wild send Jason Zucker to the minors

The Minnesota Wild have demoted Jason Zucker to Houston of the AHL.

The Wild sent Zucker down as he needs to play as a top-six forward and Pierre-Marc Bouchard took over his spot after Zucker got hit by Corey Perry, a hit that resulted in a four-game suspension for Perry and some time off for Zucker to recover. Expect to see Zucker back soon.
