The Minnesota Wild went unscathed through the chaos of the pre-Christmas COVID outbreak that pummeled its way through the NHL. Well, until now.
Announced by the team on Tuesday morning, defenseman Jonas Brodin is not practicing due to being on the COVID protocol list.
Update: Jonas Brodin will not practice today (NHL COVID-19 Protocol).

If there was one player that most Wild fans could agree on, to be the most important cog in the machine crafted by head coach Dean Evason, it would be Brodin.
