Spurgeon (lower-body) will be out for a couple of weeks.

The Wild has sustained a significant loss in its lineup for at least the next fews weeks as Spurgeon, who has played alongside Ryan Suter the past two games and was plus-3 in 27 minutes against Buffalo on Thursday, will be sidelined with a lower-body injury. He has been placed on injured reserve. Jonas Brodin will move back to the right side with Suter and Nate Prosser will move to the second pair with Marco Scandella.

#mnwild D Jared Spurgeon (missed 9 gms) this morning:"Been a long time, a lot longer than we expected, but I’m just excited to get back."

Matt Kassian was sent down to the AHL in order for Spurgeon to come off of IR. Spurgeon will be paired with Justin Falk and Nate Prosser will be scratched. Spurgeon has 1 assist in 3 games this season.

Jared Spurgeon partaking in today's skate after taking part in yesterday's optional. Obviously getting closer to return.

Spurgeon has not played since January 22, it is likely that he will re-join Ryan Suter on the WIld's top-D pairing. Spurgeon won't be back tonight but should be back soon.

Jared Spurgeon (foot) on IR. Means at very minimum, Spurgeon can't play vs. #cbj on Tuesday

Spurgeon was expected to take a big step forward this year as he is paired with Ryan Suter, but so far 1 assist and a -3 in three games isn't the start fantasy owners were looking for. Spurgeon shouldn't be out too long though so don't give up on the young defenceman.

Spurgeon adds to a growing list of injured forwards. The offensive defender scored two goals and 15 points over 36 games. Look for Greg Zanon to draw back in should Spurgeon miss any playing time.

Matt Cullen and Jared Spurgeon, who missed the final three preseason games with injuries, practiced today.

The young puck-mover should be ready for the regular season. Last season, Spurgeon scored four goals and 12 points through 53 games including six on the PP. Expect his playing time to increase in his sophomore season.

Matt Cullen (neck) and Jared Spurgeon (rib) are out tonight, so same lineup tonight as Tuesday unless Nate Prosser gets in. Wild's 3-0 with Prosser in the lineup, by the way, and 0-2 without him.

Just a precautionary measure as the Wild want their young, puck-moving d-man healthy. Last season, Spurgeon scored four goals and 12 points through 53 games including six on the PP. Expect his playing time to increase in his sophomore season.

Likewise, Jared Spurgeon has a bruised rib and Justin Falk will play in his place.

Just a precautionary measure as the Wild want their young, puck-moving d-man healthy. Last season, Spurgeon scored four goals and 12 points through 53 games including six on the PP. Expect his playing time to increase in his sophomore season.
