Wilderness Walk: Oh no, Dumba and Foligno

That’s Wild

• According to the Big Boss Dean Evason for the Minnesota Wild, Marcus Foligno and Matt Dumba are out temporarily with injuries. It’s a significant knock for a team that has depended on both players through various times this season, but they are set to just miss Wednesday’s game against the Chicago Blackhawks, so it isn’t so bad.

• In better news, the Wild signed Jordan Greenway to a three-year extension with a $3-million AAV cap hit. It kicks ass. [Hockey Wilderness]
• Does a trade for Vancouver Canucks forward J.T. Miller, make any sense for the Wild at this time? [10K Rinks]
• Shayna Goldman analyzes the Wild, yet again. This time looking at some of the best lines in the NHL and a familiar all-situation two-way all-amazing forward line is on the list. GREEF Forever. [Sportsnet]

Off the trail...

• The NHL revised their COVID-19 protocol, and that means getting rid of daily testing of players and staff. [NBC Sports]
