Jared Spurgeon Stats

Minnesota Wild defensemen Jared Spurgeon (upper body) and Matt Dumba (upper body) will be back in the lineup on Friday against Colorado. Unlike many teams, Minnesota still has something to play for and aims to lock up home-ice advantage for the postseason, so Spurgeon and Dumba return for the regular-season finale. The Wild captain has missed two games, while we last saw Dumba at the start of the month. Both players had a number of injury issues throughout the regular season and the team will hope that they can now stay healthy for a long playoff run. Spurgeon has skated in 64 games this season, picking up 39 points, and Dumba has managed 56 outings prior to Friday, recording 26 points with 113 hits and 83 blocks.

Minnesota's captain has had some bad luck regarding injuries and it's resulted in him skating in just 64 games this season. He's done well when healthy, recording 39 points with 83 blocks and a plus-30 rating.

Minnesota Wild defenseman Jared Spurgeon had a goal and assist in Sunday's 6-3 victory over the Kings to tie a franchise record for the longest point streak by a defenseman. He now finds himself on a seven-game streak. Ryan Suter set the record in 2013-14 and Matt Dumba was the last Wild blue-liner to reach a seven-game streak in 2018-19. Spurgeon has taken his tally for the season to 36 points, and he also sits on 69 blocks through 56 games. The Wild captain does it all for the team each night and has been a solid piece for fantasy managers as well.

Minnesota Wild defenseman Jared Spurgeon (lower body) was placed on Injured Reserve on Monday and it appears that he's looking at a lengthy spell on the sidelines. The Wild captain returned to action from a lower-body injury less than two weeks ago, but he re-aggravated the injury last Thursday in a 3-2 shootout loss to Buffalo. With Spurgeon missing, Jon Merrill will be paired with Alex Goligoski. The 29-year-old scored his third goal of the season against the Sabres, and he boasts 11 points for the campaign in 29 outings with 23 hits and 46 blocks. Merrill has been held pointless just once in the past four games.
