| Pos | Role | Name |
| C | 1 | Eric Staal  ActiveEric Staal and the Minnesota Wild were blanked 2-0 in Tuesday's loss to the Winnipeg Jets. The Wild were able to keep the game close, but they were never able to solve Jets goalie Connor Hellebuyck. To make matters worse for Staal, he also took a nasty cross-check to the head from Josh Morrissey that went uncalled by the officials. The veteran finished the night with a minus-1 rating and three shots on goal in 20:12 of ice time. The 33-year-old has one goal and one assist in four postseason games. The Wild now find themselves down 3-1 in this best-of-seven series. A loss in Winnipeg on Friday night would end Minnesota's season. Apr 17 |
| 2 | Mikko Koivu ActiveMikko Koivu contributed a pair of assists in Sunday's 6-2 win over Winnipeg in Game 3. Koivu assisted on power-play goals by Mikael Granlund and Zach Parise in the first period. He has picked up at least one helper in each of Minnesota's three playoff games. Koivu has four points in the series so far. Apr 16 |
| 3 | Joel Eriksson Ek ActiveJoel Eriksson Ek played hurt in the postseason. Eriksson Ek didn't take many faceoffs in Minnesota's five-game series. Coach Bruce Boudreau wasn't certain if Eriksson Ek was hurt when he was leveled by Jets defender Dustin Byfuglien in Game 1, but said "there's a good chance" that was the cause. The Minnesota bench boss said that no injured player will require off-season surgery. Apr 24 |
| 4 | Matt Cullen ActiveMatt Cullen isn't sure if he'll retire this summer. Cullen spoke about it following the Wild's exit from the playoffs in Game 5, but that wasn't where his mind was at. "I don’t know," Cullen said. "My only thought here the last while was getting it back home for Game 6. So to be honest, I don’t have an answer right now." Cullen is 41-years-old and will celebrate his birthday on Nov. 6th. If he does decide to retire, he'll be ending a career that's spanned 1,445 games and has included three Stanley Cup championships. Apr 22 |
| 5 | Kyle Rau ActiveThe Minnesota Wild and Kyle Rau are reportedly close to agreeing to an extension. The terms of the contract aren't clear yet, but he's coming off a two-year, $1.85 million contract. If he's not re-signed, then he will become an unrestricted free agent on July 1. He excelled in the AHL last season with 23 goals and 50 points in 69 AHL contests, but only played in three games with Minnesota. Jun 20 |
| LW | 1 | Jason Zucker ActiveJason Zucker has been selected as a finalist for the King Clancy Trophy. This award is given "to the player who best exemplifies leadership qualities on and off the ice and has made a noteworthy humanitarian contribution in his community." Zucker has been a big part of the community in Minnesota, notably with fundraising campaigns. Nashville's P.K. Subban as well as Vancouver's Henrik and Daniel Sedin have also been selected as finalists for the award. May 2 |
| 2 | Zach Parise  SidelinedZach Parise (fractured sternum) will be re-evaluated in a few weeks. Parise was told that his fractured sternum would heal on its own. He was injured in Game 3 against Winnipeg in the first round of the playoffs. Apr 25 |
| 3 | Jordan Greenway ActiveJordan Greenway found the back of the net in Sunday's Game 3 win over Winnipeg. Greenway got his first NHL goal in the playoffs after he contributed one assist in six games with the Wild during the regular season. He has two points in three postseason outings. Apr 16 |
| 4 | Marcus Foligno ActiveMarcus Foligno logged just 9:21 of ice time in Game 3, but he made an impact in Minnesota's 6-2 victory. Foligno scored Minnesota's sixth goal of the match and he was involved in a strange tangle up with Jets defender Tyler Myers, which resulted in an injury for the Jets defender. However, before all of that happened, he set the tone physically with some hard hits. Apr 16 |
| 5 | Tyler Ennis ActiveTyler Ennis will be a healthy scratch in Game 5 against the Winnipeg Jets on Friday night. Ennis has played in just one of the five games this postseason. He had eight goals and 22 points in 73 games during the regular season. Cal O'Reilly, Kurtis Gabriel and Louie Belpedio, Justin Kloos and Nikolas Svedberg will also watch the game from the press box. Apr 20 |
| RW | 1 | Mikael Granlund ActiveMikael Granlund produced one goal and one assist in Minnesota's 6-2 win over Winnipeg on Sunday night. Minnesota moved Granlund up to the top line alongside Eric Staal, who also had one goal and one assist in the contest, and Jason Zucker. The change seemed to help spark the offense for the Wild. Apr 16 |
| 2 | Nino Niederreiter ActiveEven after Nino Niederreiter returned from a broken fibula, he wasn't 100%. "There was a lot of games he had played after his injury and he said it was still bothering him, but he played through it," Wild coach Bruce Boudreau revealed. "Only, I thought [Game 4] might have been the first time in a long time you could see him skate and the power he has when he’s working. You break your legs, it’s not easy coming back from it. And everybody wants to come back quick. These guys are not used to getting hurt, so they do and they’re just getting better now." After recording 57 points in 2016-17, Niederreiter finished the regular season with 18 goals and 32 points in 63 games. He had no points and a minus-four rating in the 2018 playoffs. Apr 22 |
| 3 | Charlie Coyle ActiveCharlie Coyle underwent surgery last Friday on both of his wrists. Coyle needed tears in each of his wrists repaired and he will require four weeks to recover. He had been dealing with the issues during the last half of the regular season and in the playoffs. May 22 |
| 4 | Daniel Winnik ActiveDaniel Winnik scored his fifth goal of the season in a 3-2 overtime loss to Vancouver on Sunday. Winnik, who didn't have a point in his previous four outings, gave the Wild a 2-1 lead midway through the third period, but they were unable to hold their advantage. He has accounted for 13 points in 46 games. Jan 15 |
| 5 | Zack Mitchell ActiveZack Mitchell will be a healthy scratch in Saturday's game against the Nashville Predators. Mitchell has three goals and two assists in 22 games this season. This will be the third straight game he watches from the press box. Gustav Olofsson will also serve as a healthy scratch in this one. Mar 24 |
| 6 | Luke Kunin  I.L.Luke Kunin's knee surgery was a success. Kunin suffered an ACL tear in his left knee on Sunday. He's projected to miss the next six-to-seven months. In other words, he won't be available for the playoffs and he might miss the start of the 2018-19 campaign. Apr 4 |
| 7 | Kurtis Gabriel ActiveKurtis Gabriel has been recalled by Minnesota. Gabriel recorded three goals, five assists and 43 penalty minutes with Iowa of the AHL this year. He had one assist and 29 PIMs in 13 appearances with Minnesota during the 2016-17 campaign. Apr 15 |
| 8 | Justin Kloos ActiveJustin Kloos has been called up by Minnesota. Kloos registered 19 goals and 50 points in 76 games during his rookie season with Iowa of the AHL. He also appeared in one game with Minnesota during the regular season. Apr 15 |
| D | 1 | Ryan Suter SidelinedRyan Suter is making progress in his recovery, but it will be a few weeks before he can start putting weight on his ankle. "I can’t wait," Suter said. "I feel like once I start walking, then it’s kind of behind me. … There’s a few more weeks for that, and once that happens, hopefully I’ll be ready to go." The goal is for Suter to be ready for the season opener. He suffered a fractured ankle on March 31. May 24 |
| 2 | Jared Spurgeon ActiveJared Spurgeon (hamstring) will suit up in Game 1 against the Winnipeg Jets. That's huge for the Wild considering they'll be without Ryan Suter. Spurgeon missed the final 12 games of the regular season, so it'll be interesting to see how much rust he has to shake off on Wednesday. The 28-year-old had nine goals and 37 points in 61 games this season. Apr 11 |
| 3 | Matt Dumba ActiveMatt Dumba is a restricted free agent this off-season. Dumba is a core player who should be back with the Wild. "I love it here in Minnesota," he said. "The people are great. My teammates are awesome. I built a lot of good friendships here. I see that happening." Dumba had a career year in 2017-18 with 14 goals and 50 points in 82 games. He also has arbitration rights. Apr 24 |
| 4 | Jonas Brodin ActiveJonas Brodin recorded his 100th career point on Saturday. Brodin got there when he scored a goal at 10:53 of the first period in what became a 6-3 win over San Jose. Brodin's never been much of an offensive contributor and it's taken him 404 games to reach the 100-point mark. He finished the 2017-18 campaign with six goals and 21 points in 73 contests. Apr 8 |
| 5 | Nick Seeler ActiveNick Seeler had a great night Sunday in Game 3 against Winnipeg. Seeler was credited with four blocks, including some big ones on the penalty kill, and he chipped in two assists in a 6-2 victory for the Wild. He only had four helpers in 22 appearances during the regular season. Apr 16 |
| 6 | Nate Prosser ActiveNate Prosser was good to go on Thursday night after he suffered a lower-body injury Tuesday. Prosser recorded one hit and a plus-1 rating in a team-low 12:08 of ice time in a 4-3 overtime loss to Arizona. Feb 9 |
| 7 | Ryan Murphy ActiveRyan Murphy will make his NHL playoff debut in Game 5 on Friday night versus Winnipeg. Murphy will take Carson Soucy's spot alongside Nate Prosser on Minnesota's third defense pairing. "There's just more experience in (Murphy)," coach Bruce Boudreau said. "He's an offensive player, and we can use him on the power play." Apr 20 |
| 8 | Louis Belpedio ActiveLouis Belpedio will make his NHL debut tonight against the San Jose Sharks. Belpedio was a third round pick of the Wild back in 2014 who recently completed his fourth season with Miami University (Ohio). He played 10 games in the AHL so far, picking up just two points. Apr 7 |
| 9 | Gustav Olofsson SidelinedGustav Olofsson has been ruled out of tonight's game against the San Jose Sharks. It will mark the fifth straight game Olofsson misses due to a concussion. Apr 7 |
| 10 | Carson Soucy ActiveCarson Soucy went through some struggles in his first NHL playoff game on Wednesday night. "I was trying to do too much almost," Soucy said. "I was just out of position on some plays that I made the wrong read, kind of, and that could be due to nerves or, I don't know, not thinking fast enough. I still think I can come away and have a better game." Soucy may drop to a combination with Nate Prosser in Game 2 on Friday night after he was paired with Jared Spurgeon. He is playing because of Ryan Suter's injury. Apr 13 |
| G | 1 | Devan Dubnyk ActiveDevan Dubnyk was pulled in Game 5 against Winnipeg after he surrendered four goals on just 10 shots in the first period. Dubnyk certainly didn't have the performance he was looking for and now Minnesota's season is over. Still, he was great for parts of the series and had a solid regular season with a 35-16-7 record, 2.52 goals-against average and .918 save percentage. Alex Stalock stopped 15 of 16 shots in relief. Apr 20 |
| 2 | Alex Stalock ActiveAlex Stalock allowed five goals on 28 shots in a 5-4 overtime loss to the Los Angeles Kings on Thursday night. Stalock had problems containing Dustin Brown on Thursday night as four of the five goals he allowed on Thursday came from Brown. The goaltender's record falls to 10-10-4 with a 2.85 GAA and a .910 save percentage. Apr 6 |
