Mandatory Credit: Matt Blewett-Imagn Images. ST. PAUL - Well, the injuries just keep coming for the Minnesota Wild. They entered Wednesday's game without Marcus Foligno for the second consecutive game and also did not have Marcus Johansson due to an illness. Marco Rossi played three minutes in the first period and left with an injury. The injury happened when he was hit with a Matt Boldy shot to his left knee in front of Seattle Kraken goaltender Philipp Grubauer. Rossi, 23, has 21 goals, 32 assists, and 53 points in 69 games this season. He is one of three Wild players to have played in every game this season. He played in all 82 games last year as well. So, he has played in 151 straight games for Minnesota and has 42 goals, 51 assists, and 93 points in that span. Jonas Brodin is day-to-day with lower-body injury. The Wild are also without Jonas Brodin, Kirill Kaprizov, and Joel Eriksson Ek. Losing Rossi long-term would really sink this team.
