Wild's Marcus Johansson: Still being evaluated
Johansson's status is still up in the air for Game 4 against Vegas on Saturday after he suffered an undisclosed injury Thursday in Game 3, Jessi Pierce of NHL.com reports.
Johansson has one assist through three playoff games, seeing action on the second line alongside Frederick Gaudreau and Mats Zuccarello. Should Johansson sit out Saturday's tilt, look for Vinnie Hinostroza to enter the lineup.

Wild's Riley Mercer: Inks entry-level deal
Mercer signed a three-year, entry-level contract with Minnesota on Friday.
Mercer was stellar this season, going 27-15-4 with a 2.53 GAA and a .925 save percentage over 46 games with QMJHL Drummondville. The 21-year-old undrafted netminder's contract will begin next season.

Wild's Zach Bogosian: Garners assist in win
Bogosian logged a shorthanded assist and two hits in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Golden Knights in Game 3.
Bogosian set up Marcus Foligno's empty-netter while the Wild were finishing off a penalty kill late in the game. The 34-year-old Bogosian ended his 10-game point drought with the helper. He has posted a minus-8 rating, 10 hits and four blocked shots in that span. Bogosian is seeing limited minutes on the third pairing in the playoffs after a regular season in which he had 16 points, 79 shots on net, 81 hits, 80 blocked shots and a minus-6 rating over 81 appearances. He's unlikely to see more ice time unless injuries arise on the blue line.

Wild's Justin Brazeau: Picks up helper Thursday
Brazeau notched an assist and eight hits in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Golden Knights in Game 3.
Brazeau helped out on a Marco Rossi goal in the first period as the Wild got a rare contribution from players that aren't on the first line. The 27-year-old Brazeau has just the one assist to go with one shot on goal, 14 hits and a plus-1 rating over three playoff outings. He shouldn't have trouble staying in the lineup, but he is unlikely to generate much offense from the fourth line.

Wild's Yakov Trenin: Nabs helper in Game 3 win
Trenin registered an assist in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Golden Knights in Game 3.
The Wild have gotten little offense from their depth players, but the fourth line combined for a goal Thursday. Trenin set up Marco Rossi's first-period tally. This was just the third point in the last 25 games for Trenin, who offers far more physicality than offense. In the regular season, he had 15 points, 85 shots on net, 241 hits and 54 PIM across 76 appearances, and he's already racked up 15 hits and five blocked shots over three postseason outings.

Wild's Zeev Buium: Earns first point
Buium notched a power-play assist in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Golden Knights in Game 3.
Buium's played in all three playoff games so far, keeping Declan Chisholm and Jon Merrill in the press box. As expected, Buium's minutes have been limited -- though he is seeing power-play time. That's where he set up a Kirill Kaprizov tally just 3:13 into this contest. The Wild have a couple of workhorse defensemen in Brock Faber and Jonas Brodin, so Buium is likely to be sheltered throughout the playoffs before getting a chance at a larger role in 2025-26.

Wild's Marcus Johansson: Doesn't finish game
Johansson (undisclosed) didn't finish Thursday's Game 3 versus the Golden Knights, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.
Russo notes Johansson took some heavy hits in the contest. The 34-year-old winger can be considered day-to-day heading into Saturday's Game 4, which starts at 4 p.m. Eastern Time. The Wild have already made their Black Aces call-ups, so they have plenty of options available if Johansson can't suit up.

Wild's Ryan Hartman: Deals another helper
Hartman notched a power-play assist and four blocked shots in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Golden Knights in Game 3.
Hartman set up the second of Kirill Kaprizov's two goals in the game. The 30-year-old Hartman has opened the playoffs with a helper in three straight games while primarily playing in a middle-six role. He's added seven shots on net, four hits, seven blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating. As long as Hartman's play is steady, Marco Rossi will likely remain on the fourth line.

Wild's Marcus Foligno: Fills empty cage
Foligno scored an empty-net goal, added four PIM and doled out four hits in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Golden Knights in Game 3.
Foligno toned down the hitting in this contest and still came away with a goal for the second game in a row. He has two tallies, three shots on net, 27 hits and a plus-2 rating across three playoff outings. Foligno is playing his style in a third-line role, and it's a good fit for playoff intensity, so he's unlikely to move around the lineup too much.

Wild's Marco Rossi: Contributes two points in Game 3
Rossi scored a goal on four shots, dished a power-play assist and added two PIM in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Golden Knights in Game 3.
Rossi's play during the first two games of this first-round series earned him a demotion to the fourth line. He was still there in Game 3, but he was able to make an impact with the Wild in control of the line matchups on home ice. This ended a five-game point drought for the 23-year-old center, who may struggle on offense if he remains stuck in the bottom six. Rossi had 24 goals, 60 points, 136 shots on net and a plus-3 rating over 82 regular-season outings.

Wild's Matt Boldy: Impactful again Thursday
Boldy scored a goal on five shots and added a power-play assist in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Golden Knights in Game 3.
Boldy has four straight multi-point efforts, including three to begin the playoffs. The 24-year-old has racked up four goals, two assists, nine shots on net, seven hits and a plus-3 rating through three postseason outings. Boldy and Kirill Kaprizov have been driving the bus for the Wild's offense and will continue to do so as long as they're sharing top-line minutes.

Wild's Kirill Kaprizov: Scores pair of power-play goals
Kaprizov scored two power-play goals on six shots and added two PIM in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Golden Knights in Game 3.
Kaprizov has opened the postseason with three straight multi-point efforts, racking up four goals and three assists in that span. Thursday's pair of goals accounted for his first power-play production in these playoffs. The 27-year-old also has 11 shots on net, eight blocked shots and a plus-3 rating in the postseason. Kaprizov is the heartbeat of the Wild's offense, so he should continue to set the tone with his scoring.

Wild's Filip Gustavsson: Wins again in Game 3
Gustavsson stopped 30 of 32 shots in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Golden Knights in Game 3.
Gustavsson has won each of the last two games with matching stat lines. The 26-year-old netminder's steady play between the pipes has helped the Wild take a somewhat surprising 2-1 series lead over the Golden Knights. Gustavsson will look to keep the momentum going in Minnesota's favor in Saturday's Game 4.

Wild's Filip Gustavsson: Set to start Game 3
Gustavsson will start Thursday's Game 3 at home against the Golden Knights, Vegas Hockey Now reports.
After taking the loss in Game 1 of Minnesota's first-round series, Gustavsson bounced back in Game 2, turning aside 30 of 32 shots (.938 save percentage) en route to the win. He'll attempt to stay effective as the series shifts to Minnesota on Thursday.

Wild's Jonas Brodin: Posts assist in win
Brodin notched an assist and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Golden Knights in Game 2.
Brodin helped out on Matt Boldy's opening goal, sending a pass to Kirill Kaprizov who then sent Boldy in on a breakaway. The helper was Brodin's second in the last three games, which follows a 10-game drought. The 31-year-old defenseman had a lot of injury troubles in 2024-25, which limited him to 20 points, 71 shots on net, 104 blocked shots and a plus-10 rating over 50 regular-season appearances. As long as he stays healthy, Brodin will handle top-four minutes in the playoffs.
