The Minnesota Wild continue their road trip in Philadelphia today against the Flyers.
The Minnesota Wild (5-0-2) are back in action tonight against the Philadelphia Flyers (1-5-1) on the road. Here are a few things to note.
Ryan Hartman traveled back to Minnesota to rehab his injury. He missed the last three games with an upper-body injury and was recently sick. He will miss today's game and could miss Tuesday's game in Pittsburgh.
Jared Spurgeon practiced with the team on Friday and could play tonight. He has missed the last five games with a lower-body injury. If Spurgeon plays, he will likely force Declan Chisholm out of the lineup.
Filip Gustavsson is expected to start today for the Wild.
As for the Flyers, Travis Konecny and Cam York both missed practice on Friday. If they can't play today, Bobby Brink will take Konecny's spot and Erik Johnson will draw in for York.
