Kirill Kaprizov, Joel Eriksson Ek Returning Tuesday
Minnesota Wild forwards Kirill Kaprizov (lower body) and Joel Eriksson Ek (lower body) will rejoin the lineup on Tuesday against the Tampa Bay Lightning. Both players have recently missed time due to lower-body injuries, with Kaprizov sitting out two games and Eriksson Ek three. Nico Sturm and Hunter Haight will exit the lineup to make room for the duo. Kaprizov will rejoin the first line, while Eriksson Ek will center the second line. They will also strengthen Minnesota's first power-play unit. The Lightning have allowed 3.71 goals per game since the Olympic break, so Minnesota's frontline could be in for a productive evening.
