That's Wild The Minnesota Wild made one trade in the weeks leading up to tomorrow's NHL trade deadline, acquiring winger Gustav Nyquist from the Nashville Predators, but will they be doing anything else?

The NHL trade deadline is Friday. The regular season ends in a little less than six weeks. Somewhere in between those two dates, the Wild might (or might not) get three very important players back.

To me that’s a great lesson for us moving forward and it’s better to win and learn some lessons than lose and learn some lessons,” John Hynes said.

The injury-thinned Minnesota Wild could use a boost in their push to return to the playoffs, with their margin for making it slimmed down following a strong start. With the NHL trade deadline approaching this Friday, the Wild more than likely will have to find that spark from within.

Kirill Kaprizov will be out longer than anticipated for the Minnesota Wild because of a lower-body injury, general manager Bill Guerin said Friday. The forward had surgery in late January because of a lower-body injury and was expected to be out a minimum of four weeks.

Heading into the March 7 NHL trade deadline, The Athletic's Michael Russo and Joe Smith will have updates on all of the Wild rumblings.

The Wild deserve to be a buyer at the NHL trade deadline because of how well they’ve played, turning into a top-10 team after missing the playoffs last season. And their injury-depleted roster also need helps.

The Minnesota Wild are not expected to be active at the NHL Trade Deadline, but that also means Kirill Kaprizov and Joel Eriksson Ek are both expected back.
