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.

Wild's Marcus Johansson: Delivers assist in win
Johansson logged an assist and two hits in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Golden Knights in Game 2.
Johansson set up a Mats Zuccarello tally in the first period, which stood as the game-winner. Johansson had nine points over the last 11 contests of the regular season, wrapping up the year at 34 points in 72 appearances. The 34-year-old is filling a middle-six role and may generate some depth offense, but he adds little to the mix aside from points and shots on net.

Wild's Ryan Hartman: Assists in consecutive contests
Hartman logged an assist, three shots on goal, two hits and two blocked shots in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Golden Knights in Game 2.
Hartman has a helper in each of the first two playoff games, and he's earned four assists over his last seven contests. He was on the fourth line in Game 1, but he moved up to the third line and saw 17:20 of ice time in Game 2, so he's clearly got the trust of head coach John Hynes. Hartman should continue to be a versatile forward, and if his level of play is steady, he'll get more looks on offense.

Wild's Marcus Foligno: Makes presence felt in win
Foligno scored a goal on two shots and doled out 12 hits in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Golden Knights in Game 2.
Foligno made an impact in multiple ways. His goal put the Wild up 2-0 in the first period, and he was a physical force throughout the contest. Foligno has the grit to succeed in the playoffs, but his third-line role doesn't bode well for sustained offense since the Wild have struggled to get much production aside from the top line. Foligno has already racked up 23 hits in two playoff games. He had 29 points, 91 shots on net, 253 hits, 75 PIM and a plus-7 rating over 77 regular-season outings.

Wild's Mats Zuccarello: Scores in Game 2 win
Zuccarello scored a goal and added two hits in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Golden Knights in Game 2.
Zuccarello's tally at 17:15 of the first period was ultimately the game-winner. The winger's offense has bounced back in April -- he has 10 points over his last nine games between the regular season and playoffs. He put up a 54-point regular season while adding 151 shots on net, 48 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating over 69 appearances. While that's a third straight year of decline in production, the 37-year-old remains an effective playmaker in a top-six role and on the first power-play unit.

Wild's Matt Boldy: Stays hot in Tuesday's win
Boldy scored a goal on two shots, dished an assist, went plus-3 and blocked two shots in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Golden Knights in Game 2.
Boldy opened the scoring midway through the first period and then set up a Kirill Kaprizov tally early in the second. With three goals, one assist, four shots on net, seven hits and a plus-4 rating over two playoff contests, Boldy is doing everything expected of him while seeing top-line minutes. He's clicking well with Kaprizov, who has five points in the postseason, and those two are likely to stay together as long as they remain productive.

Wild's Kirill Kaprizov: Racks up three points in win
Kaprizov scored twice on four shots, dished an assist, added two hits, blocked four shots and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Golden Knights in Game 2.
Kaprizov scored the Wild's fourth and fifth goals of the contest, with the latter being an empty-netter. There's been no concern over Minnesota's top line early in the playoffs -- Kaprizov has earned five points, five shots on net, seven blocked shots and a plus-3 rating over the first two games of the postseason. He'll look to keep things rolling on home ice in Thursday's Game 3.

Wild's Filip Gustavsson: Evens up series
Gustavsson stopped 30 of 32 shots in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Golden Knights in Game 2.
Gustavsson bounced back from a Game 1 loss, cruising to victory in Vegas on Tuesday to tie the series at one game apiece. The Wild scored the first four goals of this contest, giving Gustavsson enough of a lead to protect despite the Golden Knights' push over the last 30 minutes. The series shifts to Minnesota for Game 3 on Thursday, and it's a safe assumption Gustavsson will again get the nod in goal.

Wild's Filip Gustavsson: Guarding goal Tuesday
Gustavsson will start in goal on the road versus the Golden Knights in Game 2, Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
Gustavsson will look to even the series after being in goal for the 4-2 loss in Game 1. The 26-year-old netminder is expected to be the starter for the Wild throughout the playoffs, though they'll be in a precarious position in the first round if he can't snag a win Tuesday.

Wild's Danila Yurov: Released from KHL deal
Yurov has been released from his KHL contract with Metallurg, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports Tuesday.
The termination of Yurov's KHL contract clears the way for him to sign with the Minnesota Wild ahead of the 2025-26 campaign. Per Russo, it's far from guaranteed the 21-year-old winger will stick with the organization next year, as he could opt to return to Russia rather than play in the AHL. As such, it may be NHL roster or bust for Yurov heading into training camp in the fall.

Wild's Travis Boyd: Highlights Black Aces
Boyd was recalled from AHL Iowa on Monday along with forwards Brendan Gaunce, Hunter Haight, Ben Jones and Liam Ohgren, defensemen Cameron Crotty and Carson Lambos, and netminder Samuel Hlavaj.
Boyd was one of eight players to form the Wild's Black Aces promotions after AHL Iowa failed to qualify for the Calder Cup Playoffs. The 31-year-old Boyd logged just three NHL games for the Wild this season in which he failed to register a point or a shot on goal.

Wild's Ryan Hartman: Plucks apple in Game 1 loss
Hartman notched an assist, three shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Golden Knights in Game 1.
Hartman took a bit of a beating in this contest, getting leveled on a collision in the first period before he was cut after a scuffle with Nicolas Hague in the third. The 30-year-old Hartman was able to finish the contest, which is a credit to the toughness he brings to the Wild's lineup. He had 26 points, 158 shots on net, 75 PIM, 73 hits and a minus-7 rating over 69 regular-season contests. He was listed on the fourth line to begin the playoffs, but he'll often take extra shifts with other forwards to help keep a decent share of ice time.

Wild's Kirill Kaprizov: Dishes pair of helpers
Kaprizov notched two assists and three blocked shots in Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Golden Knights in Game 1.
Kaprizov has two goals and four assists over five contests since returning from a lower-body injury. He's been a boost to the Wild's offense, but the rest of the team will also need to play well against a fully healthy Golden Knights squad. Kaprizov had 56 points despite being limited to 41 regular-season contests, so he should be productive as long as Minnesota's playoff run lasts.

Wild's Matt Boldy: Scores both goals in loss
Boldy scored two goals, added two PIM and doled out six hits in Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Golden Knights in Game 1.
Boldy has been dynamic lately with four goals and seven assists over his last six contests. The 24-year-old helped the Wild secure their playoff berth Tuesday in the regular-season finale versus the Ducks, and he carried the offense again in the playoff opener. Minnesota will need to have more than just Boldy going at this time of year if the team is to avoid an early exit against a tough first-round foe. Boldy at least looks the part of a star after his 27-goal, 73-point effort over 82 regular-season games.

Wild's Filip Gustavsson: Keeps it close in loss
Gustavsson stopped 23 of 26 shots in Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Golden Knights in Game 1. The fourth goal was an empty-netter.
Gustavsson didn't play poorly, but the Golden Knights put a puck past him in each period. The 26-year-old Swede didn't enter the playoffs in the greatest of form, going 3-3-2 with a 3.04 GAA and an .892 save percentage over his last nine regular-season outings. Gustavsson is the clear starter in the Wild's crease, though they could always turn to Marc-Andre Fleury for a change of pace. Gustavsson will likely get the chance to even the series in Game 2 on Tuesday.

Wild's Filip Gustavsson: Game 1 starter
Gustavsson will tend the road twine Sunday against the Golden Knights in Game 1, per Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal.
This will be Gustavsson's sixth career playoff start. The 26-year-old went 2-3-0 with a .921 save percentage and a 2.33 GAA over five postseason outings in 2022-23. He'll have a challenging assignment against a Vegas squad that generated 3.34 goals per game during the regular season, which ranked fifth in the NHL in 2024-25. Gustavsson has a subpar 1-3-1 record and has allowed at least three goals in four of five starts against the Golden Knights in his career.

Wild's Devin Shore: Brought up from minors
Shore was recalled from AHL Iowa on Sunday, per Michael Russo of The Athletic.
Shore had one goal, four assists, 41 shots on net, 37 blocked shots and 76 hits across 55 NHL appearances during the 2024-25 regular season. He will probably be a healthy scratch in Game 1 versus Vegas on Sunday.
