Mats Zuccarello Lands on Injured Reserve

Minnesota Wild right wing Mats Zuccarello (upper body) was placed on Injured Reserve on Thursday. He was hurt in Monday's win over the Seattle Kraken and won't be available for a few games at least. Zuccarello has made only 15 appearances this season, registering two goals and 10 assists. On Thursday against the Dallas Stars, Vladimir Tarasenko is set to skate in Zuccarello's spot on the first line, giving him extra fantasy value. Minnesota also placed defenseman Jacob Middleton (upper body) on Injured Reserve on Thursday. In corresponding moves, forward Nicolas Aube-Kubel and defenseman Matt Kiersted were recalled from the minors.

Mats Zuccarello Exits Early Monday

Minnesota Wild right wing Mats Zuccarello (undisclosed) exited Monday's 4-1 win over the Seattle Kraken after logging only 5:32 of ice time. He was knocked out of the lineup by a big hit from Kraken defenseman Vince Dunn. The Norwegian veteran was making his 15th appearance of the season after he missed the start of the campaign with a lower-body injury. Zuccarello has been sharp on the first line, contributing two goals and 12 assists. Vladimir Tarasenko, who has notched 11 points (three goals, eight assists) in 23 outings, may join the top six if Zuccarello has to spend some time on the sidelines.

Mats Zuccarello Logs Two Assists in Overtime Victory

Minnesota Wild right wing Mats Zuccarello set up two goals, including the game-winner, in Sunday's 3-2 overtime victory against the Vegas Golden Knights. The Norwegian veteran picked up his first assist on a Joel Eriksson Ek goal less than five minutes into the game and helped Kirill Kaprizov get a power-play goal with only 10 seconds left in overtime. After missing the first four weeks of action because of injury, Zuccarello hasn't needed much time to pick up form, logging four assists across five appearances. He is averaging 18:45 of ice time on Minnesota's first line. Zuccarello is an 11.2 percent career shooter, so the goals should also start to come for him eventually.

Mats Zuccarello Could Be an Option Friday

Minnesota Wild right wing Mats Zuccarello (lower body) has been ruled out for Thursday's contest against the Carolina Hurricanes. However, he could be ready to return to the lineup on Friday night in a meeting with the New York Islanders. "He's not going to go tonight, but we'll see tomorrow," Wild head coach John Hynes said Thursday morning. "It's day to day." Zuccarello, who hasn't yet played this season due to a lower-body injury, took part in Thursday's morning skate. The Norwegian veteran is 15 years into his NHL career but has remained productive, narrowly missing a fourth consecutive 60-point campaign last term.

Mats Zuccarello Expected to Miss 7-8 Weeks

Minnesota Wild right wing Mats Zuccarello (lower body) will be out for at least 7-8 weeks. On Sept. 18, Wild general manager Bill Guerin said that "something came up," and he was unsure if Zuccarello would need surgery. "It's basically similar to what [it was] coming into camp," Wild head coach John Hynes said Tuesday. "We knew he wasn't going to be ready. Now we have an exact timeline of his return." The injury could keep Zuccarello sidelined until December. Liam Ohgren, Danila Yurov, Marcus Johansson, and Marcus Foligno were all mentioned by Hynes on Tuesday as possible replacements for Zuccarello in the top-six group.

Mats Zuccarello Without Timeline for Return

Minnesota Wild right wing Mats Zuccarello (back) doesn't have a timeline for a return, Dylan Loucks of The Hockey News reports. Wild head coach John Hynes expects him to be "out for a while." The Norwegian veteran is battling a back injury ahead of his 16th NHL campaign. It seems increasingly unlikely that he will be healthy enough to play in next week's season opener against the St. Louis Blues on Oct. 9. In Zuccarello's absence, Liam Ohgren is expected to take on a larger role. The 21-year-old has recorded only seven points (three goals and four assists) in 24 NHL games, but he's shown off impressive scoring ability in the minors.

Mats Zuccarello Likely Out for Start of Season

Minnesota Wild right wing Mats Zuccarello (undisclosed) is not expected to be healthy for the start of the season. Wild general manager Bill Guerin said that "something has come up" with Zuccarello in recent weeks and he's going to miss some time, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports. Guerin mentioned that Liam Ohgren has a chance to step up in Zuccarello's absence. Ohgren was limited to five points (two goals, three assists) in 24 NHL appearances last season. However, he was very prolific in the minors, posting 37 points (19 goals, 18 assists) in 41 AHL outings.

Mats Zuccarello Records Two Assists In Losing Effort

Minnesota Wild right wing Mats Zuccarello finished Sunday's 3-2 loss to Vegas with two assists. Kirill Kaprizov scored both goals for the Wild. Zuccarello has been an impactful sidekick for Kaprizov on the first line all season, logging 17 points (six goals, 11 assists) in 18 appearances. He bagged three assists in two games over the weekend after returning from a 13-game absence. Minnesota's offense didn't appear to have been affected much by Zuccarello's absence, but his return definitely adds quality to the team's attack. He should continue to have success on the top line next to Kaprizov and Marco Rossi.

Mats Zuccarello Ruled Out For 3-4 Weeks

Minnesota Wild right wing Mats Zuccarello (lower body) has been ruled out for 3-4 weeks. He underwent surgery on Thursday night after getting injured in a 3-0 win over Montreal. Based on the expected timeline, Zuccarello will be out for at least 10 games. Working on the first line, Zuccarello has recorded 14 points (six goals, eight assists) in 16 appearances this season. Matt Boldy looks set to replace him on the line until the veteran winger is ready to return. The Wild also lost Joel Eriksson Ek (lower body) on Thursday, but he's considered day-to-day and might be good to go Saturday versus Dallas.

Mats Zuccarello Exits With Lower-Body Injury Versus Canadiens

Minnesota Wild right wing Mats Zuccarello (lower body) took only four shifts in Thursday's matchup against Montreal. He suffered a lower-body injury when teammate Brock Faber hit him with a shot. Zuccarello entered Thursday's tilt with a three-game point streak and has been part of the Wild's very prolific first line. He has tallied 14 points (six goals, eight assists) in 16 outings. Ryan Hartman or Marcus Foligno could join the top-six group if Zuccarello is out on Saturday against Dallas. Both players might even end up there, as Minnesota also lost Joel Eriksson-Ek (lower body) on Thursday.

Mats Zuccarello Fined $2K For Unsportsmanlike Conduct

Minnesota Wild forward Mats Zuccarello has been hit with a $2K fine for unsportsmanlike conduct for actions during Thursday's 6-1 loss to the Nashville Predators. The veteran was involved in a scuffle with Predators forward Michael McCarron while still on the bench, earning him the fine. McCarron was also handed a $2K fine for unsportsmanlike conduct. Both players received two-minute minors on the play. Zuccarello is enjoying another fine season with 11 goals and 50 points across 51 games. He has added 124 shots on goal and a whopping 28 points on the power play. The Wild currently sit sixth in the Central Division with a 28-26-6 record, eight points back of the rival Preds for the final Wild Card spot in the Western Conference.

Mats Zuccarello Activated From Injured Reserve

Minnesota Wild right wing Mats Zuccarello (upper body) appears to be ready to return to the lineup, as the team has activated him from Injured Reserve ahead of Saturday's contest against Columbus. The veteran winger hasn't played since Dec. 16, sitting out nine games. Despite missing multiple weeks, Zuccarello has remained at the top of the Wild's assist's table with 22 helpers and he's added six goals across the season to average a point per game through 28 outings. His return puts Nic Petan's spot in the top six under a threat.

Mats Zuccarello Out Week-To-Week

Minnesota Wild winger Mats Zuccarello will be sidelined on a week-to-week basis due to an upper-body injury. The veteran missed Monday's contest against the Pittsburgh Penguins and last appeared in a shootout win over the Vancouver Canucks on Saturday. It's a significant blow for the Wild as Zuccarello leads the club with 22 assists and 28 points on the season through 28 games. Zuccarello has also been a big contributor on the man advantage, racking up one goal and 13 points on the power play. The 36-year-old signed a two-year contract extension with the Wild this past summer and has spent the last four seasons with the Wild, recording at least 67 points in each of the last two seasons.

Mats Zuccarello Misses Monday's Game With Upper-Body Injury

Minnesota Wild winger Mats Zuccarello (upper body) wasn't in the lineup for Monday's game against the Pittsburgh Penguins. After the game, coach John Hynes said Zuccarello was day-to-day and has a chance to play Tuesday, so the injury doesn't appear to be serious. That is good news for fantasy managers, as Zucc has put up 28 points (six goals, 22 assists) in 28 games as part of the Wild's first line and first powerplay unit. In his absence, Minnesota went with a first line of Kirill Kaprizov, Joel Eriksson Ek, and Matt Boldy, while Marcus Johansson was bumped up to the first powerplay unit.

Mats Zuccarello Shines As Wild Keep Improving

Minnesota Wild right wing Mats Zuccarello notched a goal and two assists as the team recorded a third consecutive win with a 4-1 victory over Chicago on Sunday. The veteran from Norway had two even-strength points during a three-goal first period and collected a power-play helper in the second. With the effort, Zuccarello extended his point streak to nine games. Unlike many of his teammates, Zuccarello had no issue performing well under Dean Evason, and he's kept going following a coaching change. The 36-year-old has bagged a team-best 20 assists and also leads Minnesota with 26 points through 22 games.

Mats Zuccarello Collects Two Points Versus Toronto

Minnesota Wild right wing Mats Zuccarello continued his productive start to 2023-24 with a two-point effort in Sunday's Global Series loss to Toronto. He logged a goal and an assist to help the Wild push the game to overtime, but Minnesota couldn't find a way to escape a fifth consecutive loss as William Nylander netted Toronto's fourth goal in the extra frame. The team has gone ice-cold lately, but it apparently hasn't bothered Zuccarello, who's tallied two goals and four assists during the five-game losing streak. For the season overall, the veteran winger boasts a team-best 19 points (five goals, 14 assists) in 17 games.

Mats Zuccarello Posts Two Power-Play Assists Friday

Minnesota Wild right wing Mats Zuccarello recorded two assists in Friday's 3-2 loss against Buffalo. Both of his helpers came in power-play situations, with Kirill Kaprizov and Joel Eriksson Ek being the goal-scorers. Zuccarello himself came up empty-handed in front of goal despite having six efforts on target. 2023-24 looks set to be another productive campaign for Zuccarello, who leads the team with 15 points (three goals, 12 assists) through 14 games. However, he and his line will be desperate to improve their play in even-strength situations, as Zuccarello is minus-six for the year and Kaprizov a team-worst minus-nine.

Mats Zuccarello Signs Extension With Wild

Minnesota Wild winger Mats Zuccarello has signed a two-year, $8.25M contract extension ($4.125M per year) with the club. The extension will kick in next year, so he is signed through 2025-26. The 36-year-old has put up the best two seasons of his career in the last two years and appears to be on track to repeat that success as he will once again be stapled to Kirill Kaprizov, both at five-on-five and on the powerplay. The veteran put up 22 goals and 45 assists for 67 points in 78 games last year, and should be expected to come close to those numbers again this season, making him a good mid-round target in drafts.

Mats Zuccarello Questionable For Friday

Minnesota Wild right wing Mats Zuccarello (undisclosed) is questionable for Friday's Game 6 against Dallas. The 35-year-old speedster hasn't been on the ice for two days and might now also miss Friday's elimination game. Minnesota head coach Dean Evason has said that the lineup won't be certain until the warmups. The Wild are already in a rough spot and Zuccarello's absence would make things even more difficult for the team. The veteran is tied for the team lead in scoring this postseason with five points in five games.

Mats Zuccarello Leads Minnesota To Victory Friday

Minnesota Wild forward Mats Zuccarello scored twice Friday against the Dallas Stars. He helped Minnesota take a 2-1 playoff series lead beating Dallas 5-1. The veteran winger has two goals and two assists in three playoff contests this year. Career-wise, Zuccarello has played in 93 playoff games logging 18 goals and 36 assists. Zuccarello's playoff experience will help provide veteran leadership on a younger Minnesota team should they progress further along in the playoffs.
