The Minnesota Wild (34-20-4) face the Utah Hockey Club (26-24-9) for a game on the road tonight. 

The Wild recalled forward Brendan Gaunce from the Iowa Wild earlier after defenseman Travis Dermott was claimed off waivers by the Edmonton Oilers. 

Despite being recalled, Gaunce won't play tonight. The only change for the Wild will be the starting goaltender. Marc-Andre Fleury will start tonight for the Wild vs Utah. 

Utah head coach Andre Tourigny said that there are some game-time decisions among the forwards so the lines below aren't set and stone. 

That being said, Karel Vejmelka will start again for Utah. The Wild are coming off a loss and are 6-4-0 in their last ten. Utah is coming off two straight wins and is 5-3-2 in its last ten.

Here are tonight’s projected lines (subject to change).
