The Wild have recalled forward Travis Boyd from Iowa.
During Friday's media availability, Wild head coach John Hynes indicated that the team will have a "few question marks" heading into the game on Saturday.
Kirill Kaprizov left during the second period of Thursday's game but did return. Hynes said Kaprizov avoided a serious injury.
Even with an extra forward on the trip, the Wild have recalled Travis Boyd from Iowa on what will likely be an emergency basis.
Boyd, 31, has two goals and 11 points in 13 AHL games for the Iowa Wild this year. He was recalled by the Wild earlier this year but did not play.
