Wild forward, Adam Raska skated on his own today. John Hynes said his injury doesn't seem to be too major.
ST. PAUL - Wild forward Adam Raska got hurt in Carolina last week after colliding with Hurricanes defenseman Brett Pesce in the third period and has missed the last two games due to an injury. Jake Lucchini has played in Raska's absence.
“He’s doing OK. He skated before practice, so it doesn’t seem like it’s anything major," Wild head coach John Hynes said. "It’s just soreness and stuff like that. But he is working out and skating a little bit, so that looks OK.”
Raska, 22, has played in five games this year for the Wild and has averaged six minutes and 48 seconds of ice time with 11 hits and one blocked shot.
The young power forward was acquired in a trade earlier this season when the Wild sent defenseman Calen Addison to San Jose for Raska and a 2026 fifth-round pick.
It is likely that Raska will remain out of the lineup tomorrow against the Anaheim Ducks but Hynes said today that his injury isn't anything too major.
