Zuccarello leads the Wild with seven points (3G / 4A) in six games but will likely miss Thursday's game in Seattle. Minnesota recalled Kyle Rau, Connor Dewar and Jon Lizotte from the AHL to replace Zuccarello and Rem Pitlick.







Bogosian suffered a lower-body injury in practice on Wednesday and will miss at least one month. With Bogosian out, the Lightning recalled Andrej Sustr from Syracuse (AHL) to take his place.

Johansson suffered a lower-body injury in the Kraken's season opener and was placed on IR on Wednesday. Johansson had no points and one shot in 16:13 TOI. Kole Lind was recalled from Charlotte (AHL) to take Johansson's spot on the roster.


Shore tweaked something in practice this week and will not play in the Oilers season opener vs. the Canucks. With Shore out, Ryan McLeod will centre the fourth line between Kyle Turris and Brendan Perlini.


Shore tweaked something in practice on Monday and his status for the Oilers' season opener is unclear. In Tuesday's skate, Ryan McLeod centred the fourth line in Shore's place, so look for that configuration if Shore can't play.

Johansson was placed in COVID-19 protocol on Monday but has been cleared to play in the first game in franchise history. It is difficult to project who Johansson will skate with, but with Calle Jarnkrok, Joonas Donskoi and Jared McCann all out, you have to assume he will play a prominent role.


Boldy suffered a fractured ankle in Thursday's preseason game vs. the Blackhawks. The injury will keep him sidelined until early-to-mid November and will likely force him to start the season in the AHL to get back up to speed.

Boldy appeared to be on track to make the Wild out of training camp but now it looks like he could miss some time to start the season. The injury could open the door for fellow prospect Marco Rossi to make the team, but it's more likely that recent waiver pickup Rem Pitlick claims that spot.
