Wild head coach John Hynes said today that Zach Bogosian will be a game-time decision for tonight's game.
ST. PAUL - Zach Bogosian was not on the ice this morning for the team's skate and will be a game-time decision for tonight's game against the Colorado Avalanche.
Bogosian, 33, blocked a shot in the Wild's last game against the Ottawa Senators. He went down in a heap a bit and got off the ice after the icing due to his injury. It happened in the final minute of the game when Ottawa had their goalie pulled for the extra attacker.
He was getting some treatment this morning and will likely play if he responds well to the treatment. If Bogosian is not ready to play, Dakota Mermis will draw into the lineup.
Declan Chisholm will take Bogosian's spot on the second pair and Mermis will play with Jon Merrill on the bottom pair.
