Joel Eriksson Ek News
Minnesota Wild center Joel Eriksson Ek was the party starter Sunday against Washington, scoring two goals and delivering an assist while the team rushed to a 4-0 lead before eventually winning 5-1. Jordan Greenway also had a great night with three assists. This was Eriksson Ek's second three-point outing of the season and the first since he scored a hat trick against Winnipeg in the third game of the campaign. He became Minnesota's sixth 20-goal scorer and now has 40 points in 63 games with 183 shots and 118 hits.
Minnesota Wild center Joel Eriksson Ek sustained an upper-body injury in Monday's 7-4 loss to Dallas and could miss a significant period of time. Wild head coach Dean Evason noted after the game that the injury "doesn't look good". Eriksson Ek has been centering the second line for the team, doing plenty of damage at both ends of the ice with 11 goals, 20 points and 51 hits in 30 games. The good news is that Minnesota won't be in action again until at least Dec. 27 and Eriksson Ek has a week to recover, but that, of course, won't help him much if it's a long-term issue.
Minnesota Wild center Joel Eriksson Ek did it again on Tuesday night versus the Edmonton Oilers. He had two assists last time out versus the Toronto Maple Leafs. On Tuesday, he opened the scoring just 71 seconds into the game with a power-play goal. If that was not enough, the Swedish forward picked up an assist on the Marcus Foligno tally that made it 2-0. That came a little over six minutes after his goal. The center now has reached double digits in goals with seven assists in 25 games. Also, he is shooting the puck more with 19 shots in his last five games. Eriksson Ek is a must own in all fantasy formats.
Minnesota Wild center Joel Eriksson Ek enjoyed his third multi-point outing of the season on Saturday, finishing a 4-3 shootout win over Toronto with two assists.

Eriksson Ek loves to throw his body around and now has 35 hits for the season in 24 games. He's done very well offensively as well, getting nine goals and six assists. The 24-year-old is one of only seven players in the league with at least nine goals and 35 hits.
