Fleury will start Saturday in Buffalo.
Fleury stopped 29 of 31 shots (.935 SV%) for his fourth win in five games as he beat St. Louis in his previous start. The 38-year-old has improved his play as of late which has led to his 13-8-1 record, 2.81 GAA and .904 SV%. He will face the surging Buffalo Sabres, who have won six of their last seven games after a 5-4 victory over Washington last game.
Mats Zuccarello is day-to-day and will miss both Wilds games this weekend (upper body).
Zuccarello has 16 goals, 24 assists, 105 SOG, 16 PIMs and 16 PPP through 37 games but will be forced to miss at least the Wilds' next two games as he recovers from an upper-body injury. Minnesota has stated they have hopes he will return by next weekend's road trip.
Filip Gustavsson is considered day-to-day as he deals with illness and will not travel to Buffalo.
The Minnesota Wild have recalled Zane McIntyre after it was announced Filip Gustavsson was feeling under the weather Friday. The Wilds' backup has been the better of their two goalies, with his 9-5-1 record, 2.25 GAA and .924 SV% and will hopefully not miss anytime due to illness.

He will face the Tampa Bay Lightning, who are in the middle of a four-game winning streak with a 4-1 victory over Chicago last game.
