Minnesota Wild defenseman Jonas Brodin (lower body) will not play on Monday evening against the Dallas Stars. Brodin was able to return to the starting lineup on Saturday after missing the previous nine games but will revert back to the press box. However, it appears the team is managing his workload as he is currently viewed as "day-to-day" and has not suffered any setbacks. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status leading up to their next contest on Tuesday evening against the Vegas Golden Knights. With Brodin sitting out, fantasy managers should expect Declan Chisholm to join the starting lineup and play on the bottom pairing alongside Zach Bogosian. Through 39 games this season, Brodin has tallied 19 points with 20 hits and an impressive 81 blocked shots.
Minnesota Wild defenseman Jonas Brodin (lower body) is nearing a return to action and could be an option for Saturday's game against the Buffalo Sabres. "I think it's a strong possibility, not a guarantee," Wild head coach John Hynes said Friday after practice. Brodin took part in the practice session, skating with Jared Spurgeon. Minnesota has been without Brodin for nine games. This isn't an uncommon situation for the team, as Brodin has faced health issues all season, missing time due to three separate injuries. He has picked up 18 points (four goals, 14 assists) in 38 games while blocking 81 shots from the opposition.
Minnesota Wild defenseman Jonas Brodin (lower body) will not suit up on Wednesday evening against the Seattle Kraken. Brodin has missed the previous eight contests due to this injury. As a result, fantasy managers should expect Zach Bogosian to remain in the starting lineup and play alongside Jon Merrill on the bottom pairing. Brodin's next opportunity to return to the starting lineup will be on Saturday evening against the Buffalo Sabres. Before his injury, Brodin tallied two points (two helpers) over his last seven contests. During this stretch, the 31-year-old tallied two hits with an impressive 14 blocked shots. Through 38 total contests this season, Brodin has found the back of the net four times and added 14 helpers with an impressive 81 blocked shots. When he does return, Brodin is a viable target when looking for blocked shots in category formats.
Jonas Brodin Not Playing On Monday, Viewed As Day-To-Day
Minnesota Wild defenseman Jonas Brodin (lower body) will not play on Monday evening but is viewed as "day-to-day." Brodin was able to skate after practice, which is a promising sign he will not be sidelined for much longer. Fantasy managers should monitor his status leading up to their next contest on Wednesday evening when they host the Seattle Kraken. Brodin has missed their previous seven contests with this injury. Before the injury, the 31-year-old tallied two points (both helpers) with two hits and 14 blocked shots over his last seven contests. Through 38 total games, Brodin has logged an impressive 81 blocked shots with 18 points (four goals). With Brodin sidelined, fantasy managers should expect Zach Bogosian to remain in the starting lineup.
Minnesota Wild defenseman Jonas Brodin (lower body) is out week-to-week, the team announced on Sunday. The Swedish rearguard sustained a lower-body injury in Friday's matchup against the Colorado Avalanche. Brodin was playing in only his seventh game since recovering from a previous lower-body injury. Health issues have restricted Brodin to just 38 games this season, during which the 31-year-old has recorded 18 points (four goals, 14 assists) and 81 blocks. On Sunday against the Boston Bruins, Zach Bogosian (lower body) took Brodin's place in the lineup, returning from a one-game absence.
Minnesota Wild defenseman Jonas Brodin (undisclosed) exited Friday's contest against the Colorado Avalanche early. After the contest, head coach John Hynes did not provide an update on his status. Before exiting, Brodin logged just over 15 minutes of ice time. He logged four blocked shots, one shot on goal, with two penalty minutes. Fantasy managers should monitor his status leading up to their next contest on Sunday afternoon against the Boston Bruins. Over his previous seven games, Brodin has tallied two points (both helpers) with six shots on goal, 14 blocked shots, two hits, and six penalty minutes. While sidelined, fantasy managers should expect Jake Middleton to have an increase in ice time. Over his last six, Middleton has logged 13 blocks with one helper.
According to Sarah McLellan of Star Tribune Sports, Minnesota Wild defenseman Jonas Brodin (lower body) is expected to return on Tuesday evening to face the Boston Bruins. Brodin has been sidelined during the previous 12 games due to this injury. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status leading up to Tuesday's contest, as he would have to be activated off the injured reserve before the game. Before his injury, Brodin found the back of the net four times and added 12 helpers across 31 games. The 31-year-old logged 51 shots on goal, 17 hits, and 67 blocked shots. When he does return, fantasy managers should expect Brodin to slot in on the second defensive pairing alongside Jared Spurgeon and the second power-play unit.
Minnesota Wild defenseman Jonas Brodin (upper body) is out week-to-week. He has missed four games with an upper-body injury, and apparently, Brodin's return isn't imminent. The Swedish rearguard is a defensive workhorse for the Wild, having collected eight points (two goals, six assists) in 19 games with 35 shots and 45 blocks. Newly acquired David Jiricek might get an extended look in the lineup during Brodin's absence. He's yet to make his Wild debut after the team picked him up from Columbus in a trade on Nov. 30.
Minnesota Wild defenseman Jonas Brodin (upper body) will rejoin the action against St. Louis on Tuesday. An upper-body injury has kept Brodin out for two games. Averaging over 22 minutes of action, Brodin has kept himself busy all over the ice, recording six points (one goal, five assists), 29 shots, and 33 blocks in 15 games. He will partner Jared Spurgeon on the second defensive pairing, with Jon Merrill exiting the lineup.
Minnesota Wild defenseman Jonas Brodin (undisclosed) is regarded as questionable for Thursday's tilt against Montreal. He suffered an undisclosed injury against Chicago on Sunday and sat out Wednesday's practice. Brodin is a shot-blocking machine at the back for the Wild and occasionally also contributes offensively. He has recorded six points (one goal, five assists) with 31 blocks in 15 outings this season. Declan Chisholm, who is much more offensive-minded, will likely draw back into the lineup if Brodin is out on Thursday. Chisholm has tallied three assists in 10 outings this season, logging all of his points in his past six appearances.
Minnesota Wild defenseman Jonas Brodin (illness) will return from a one-game absence on Friday against Pittsburgh. The Swedish rearguard was forced to skip Wednesday's meeting with Chicago due to an illness. Alex Goligoski is expected to make way for Brodin on Friday. Brodin will skate on the second defensive pairing and the second power-play unit. He's totaled 13 points (one goal, 12 assists) in 32 appearances this season. The 30-year-old has enjoyed one of the best offensive spells of the season in his most recent appearances, finishing without a point only once in his past four games.
Minnesota Wild defenseman Jonas Brodin (upper body) is considered week-to-week by the team. He was injured Friday in a clash with the Oilers and will start a multi-game absence Sunday versus Seattle. Brodin had so far played in all 25 games this season, registering nine points (one goal, eight assists) with 48 shots on net and a team-high 62 blocks. He averages close to 24 minutes a night, so the Wild will have a major hole to fill on the blue line. Alex Goligoski will enter the lineup as Brodin's replacement on Sunday.
Minnesota Wild defenseman Jonas Brodin (lower body) will miss an 11th consecutive game Wednesday versus the Blues. He has returned to practice, but it looks like Brodin still needs some more recovery time before he is ready to play again. The 29-year-old has skated in 49 games this season, posting 11 points with 73 shots, 40 hits and 107 blocks. Alex Goligoski will continue to skate in Brodin's spot on the second defensive pairing Wednesday.
Minnesota Wild defenseman Jonas Brodin (lower body) won't play Wednesday against Dallas. He suffered a lower-body injury in Monday's meeting with Arizona and has failed to recover in time. Brodin scored his second goal of the season Monday and has registered eight points across 43 games. It's not been a great year for him offensively, but he's done a decent job in the defensive zone with 95 blocks. The Swedish blue-liner also has 63 shots on goal and 35 hits on his account with a plus-seven rating. Alex Goligoski will be Brodin's replacement in the lineup Wednesday.
Minnesota Wild defenseman Jonas Brodin has suffered a lower-body injury and is set to miss Thursday's matchup versus Edmonton. He had only just returned to the lineup from an illness, posting an assist in Sunday's 4-3 win over Arizona. Brodin has recorded only four points this season, but he is a key man on the defensive side of things for the Wild and also the team leader in average ice time, having logged exactly 22 minutes per game. Matt Dumba will likely be paired with Alex Goligoski again on the second defensive pairing. The veteran blue-liner recently had a nice two-point outing in a game that Brodin missed, but Goligoski looks way past his best and has totaled only three points for the whole campaign, so he won't be a good option for fantasy managers.
Minnesota Wild defenseman Jonas Brodin (illness) was back practicing Saturday and appears ready to return to the lineup Sunday versus Arizona. The Swedish blue-line was knocked out of the lineup by an illness at the start of the week just when he was about to skate in his 700th career game. Brodin posted a career-high 30 points last season, but he has notched only three points in 18 games this term. He's not a very attractive fantasy option, although Brodin does pick up blocks with a nice rate and is capable of helping out managers in that area. He has thrown himself in front of 31 shots this season. The 29-year-old skated with Matt Dumba on the second defensive pairing Saturday.
Minnesota Wild defensemen Jonas Brodin (upper body) and Alex Goligoski (COVID-19 protocols) won't play on Saturday against Washington. It's a major blow for the team, as Minnesota's blue line has already been without Jared Spurgeon (lower body). Matt Dumba's minutes have gone through the roof lately and he'll be expected to do even more now. Other rearguards, such as Jon Merrill and Dmitry Kulikov, will likely have to adjust to a heavier workload as well. Minnesota will miss a total of nine players, so things are also bleak in attack.
Jonas Brodin Picks Up Two Assists In Win On Tuesday
Minnesota Wild defenseman Jonas Brodin has gone on a nice, little point run of late. He picked up a pair of assists on Tuesday night as Minnesota won in Edmonton by a score of 4-1. Brodin also netted one of his assists on the power play. That was his third of the year already. In 25 games, the Wild defenseman has 14 points including 11 helpers. Brodin had a nice all-around effort playing over 22 minutes on Tuesday while seeing ample time on the penalty kill and the power play. He had two shots on goal, delivered a hit, and blocked two more shots. Brodin fills quite a few categories in season-long leagues especially.
Minnesota Wild defenseman Jonas Brodin is expected to make his first appearance since Feb. 2 in Saturday's clash with the Ducks. The Swedish blueliner was one of the many Wild players who landed on the NHL's COVID-19 list, which ultimately led to five of the team's games being postponed. Brodin had a solid start to the year with six points in 11 games. He also posted 21 shots and 19 blocks while registering a plus-two rating. The 27-year old is expected to suit up alongside Matt Dumba on the third defensive pairing. Dumba himself returned from a lower-body injury this week and Jared Spurgeon is back in action as well, so Minnesota's blue line is finally healthy.
