Joel Eriksson Ek Day-to-Day After Collision Injury

Joel Eriksson Ek sustained an undisclosed injury when he got tangled up with another player near the bench during Thursday's game versus the Kraken, as reported by Michael Russo of The Athletic. The Minnesota Wild center left the game in the second period. Head coach John Hynes expressed mild concern, labeling Eriksson Ek as day-to-day. While his status for Saturday's game against the Islanders is uncertain, the injury does not appear to be a long-term concern, even if he misses a couple of contests.
