Declan Chisholm Sidelined On Thursday
2 months agoMinnesota Wild defenseman Declan Chisholm (illness) will miss Thursday's season opener against Columbus. He's caught an illness bug right before the start of the season and is forced to sit out at least one game. The 24-year-old registered eight points (three goals, five assists) and 36 blocks in 29 games with the Wild last season. Jon Merrill will fill in for Chisholm on the third defensive pairing against the Blue Jackets. Merrill is very limited offensively and doesn't offer enough defensively either to be considered a fantasy target.
