ST. PAUL, Minn - The Minnesota Wild [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/minnesota-wild] announced on Tuesday an update on forward Mats Zuccarello. It was the same day that the big news came out that Kirill Kaprizov had signed an 8-year extension [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/minnesota-wild/latest-news/minnesota-wild-sign-kirill-kaprizov-to-an-8-year-contract-extension]. To lighten the mood, the Wild announced Zuccarello will be out for two months with a lower-body injury. Originally, Zuccarello was listed as "out for a while" but after seeing a doctor the Wild said he will be out for a minimum of seven to eight weeks with a lower-body injury. He sustained this injury right before training camp started. This is a tough blow for the Wild and a tough blow to their top-six forward group. Danila Yurov and Liam Ohgren have both been getting looks in the top-six as wingers. It will be a good opportunity for both of them.
