After missing the last three games with an upper-body injury, it is likely that Wild goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury will return to the lineup after the All-Star break and not tomorrow.
ST. PAUL - The Wild have been without Marc-Andre Fleury for the last three games now with an upper-body injury that he suffered in Florida a week ago.
Panthers forward William Lockwood received a three-game suspension for his hit on Fleury which has had the 39-year-old goaltender out for the last three games.
“He’s doing well," Wild head coach John Hynes said on Fleury. "He skated a little bit this morning prior to practice, so that looks like it’s progressing, too, and heading in the right direction.”
Filip Gustavsson has played in four straight games since the injury and was expected to start tomorrow against the Anaheim Ducks but he did not participate in the Wild's practice this morning. But Hynes said he expects Gustavsson to start.
