Spurgeon has six goals, 22 points, 14 PIM, 81 hits and 136 blocks in 78 outings in 2025-26. Minnesota is focused on getting ready for the playoffs, which is why the 36-year-old defenseman is resting. Daemon Hunt is set to draw into the lineup for the first time since March 1.

Haight is surging with five goals and an assist over his last three contests. The forward is up to 18 goals, 32 points and 108 shots on net over 51 appearances. He also has one assist over seven NHL contests this season, and he could push for a full-time job in Minnesota in 2026-27.

Wild's Matt Boldy: Provides two power-play assists
Boldy notched two power-play assists, four shots on goal, two hits and two PIM in Thursday's 5-4 loss to the Stars.
Boldy has multiple points in four of the last five games, earning four goals and five assists in that span. The 25-year-old winger is up to 85 points (42 goals, 43 assists), including 30 on the power play, while adding 249 shots on net, 60 hits, 58 blocked shots and a plus-18 rating over 75 appearances. Boldy's uptick in scoring is the headline, but he's a well-rounded option at forward who should be a fantasy stud for years to come.

Wild's Mats Zuccarello: Distributes three helpers in loss
Zuccarello had three assists, including two on the power play, in Thursday's 5-4 loss to the Stars.
Zuccarello has multiple assists in four of the last five games, making up for his lack of goals in that span. The 38-year-old playmaker is up to 54 points in just 59 outings this season, matching his point total from 69 regular-season contests a year ago. Zuccarello has earned 21 power-play points, 122 shots on net and a minus-5 rating in 2025-26 while primarily playing on the top line and first power-play unit.

Wild's Kirill Kaprizov: Scores two PP goals Thursday
Kaprizov scored two power-play goals on four shots in Thursday's 5-4 loss to the Stars.
Kaprizov went scoreless in the 5-2 win over the Kraken on Tuesday but posted a hat trick in the win over the Red Wings on Sunday, meaning the star winger is up to five goals on 14 shots over his last three games. Kaprizov has 45 goals on the season and is ending the regular season on a sizzling note with nine points (seven goals, two helpers) in his last six outings, a span in which he's also racked up 24 shots on goal, five hits and three blocked shots.

Wild's Ryan Hartman: Point streak reaches eight games
Hartman recorded a power-play goal in Thursday's 5-4 loss to the Stars.
Hartman has been on fire in recent weeks, and his power-play goal late in the second period extended his point streak to eight games. With 12 points (seven goals, five assists) over that span and a steady role on the first line skating alongside Kirill Kaprizov and Mats Zuccarello, expect Hartman to remain heavily involved on offense for the Wild in the final days of the regular season.

Wild's Filip Gustavsson: Beaten five times Thursday
Gustavsson stopped 15 of 20 shots in Thursday's 5-4 loss to the Stars.
Gustavsson faltered in one of the biggest games of the season for the Wild, as he posted a .750 save percentage and couldn't help Minnesota sustain its 4-3 lead in the final period. Gustavsson is ending the regular season on a sour note, as he's posted a save percentage under the .850 threshold in four of his last five appearances, going 2-3-0 with a 4.08 GAA in that span. Jesper Wallstedt could be in line for more playing time down the stretch given Gustavsson's recent struggles.

Wild's Zach Bogosian: Not traveling with team
Bogosian (lower body) will miss Thursday's game in Dallas and isn't traveling with the Wild.
Bogosian will probably also be absent from Saturday's tilt in Nashville and Monday's clash in St. Louis. The Wild will return home for their regular-season finale Tuesday versus Anaheim, which might be an opportunity for Bogosian to get into a game before the playoffs. The 35-year-old defenseman has two goals, six points, 18 PIM, 47 hits and 37 blocks in 41 outings in 2025-26.

Wild's Filip Gustavsson: In goal Thursday
Gustavsson will get the starting nod on the road against the Stars on Thursday, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.
Gustavsson has given up four or more goals in three of his last four outings but still managed a 2-2-0 record. In three previous matchups with Dallas, the Swedish netminder is 2-1-0 with a .915 save percentage and 1.99 GAA, ratios he'll need to maintain if the Wild are going to try to push for the No. 2 spot in the Central Division.

Wild's Samuel Hlavaj: Collects AHL shutout
Hlavaj recorded a 30-save shutout in AHL Iowa's 4-0 win over Texas on Wednesday.
Hlavaj made his 20th AHL appearance of the season and picked up his second shutout. He's had some moments, but his 6-10-4 record, 3.30 GAA and .885 save percentage show he still has some things to work on at Iowa. Hlavaj also had a 3.56 GAA and .908 save percentage across five games for Slovakia at the Olympics, helping his country to a fourth-place finish.
