The Minnesota Wild are getting one of their key players back for their upcoming matchup against the Edmonton Oilers on Friday night.
Defenseman Jonas Brodin has been out with a lower-body injury and has not played in a game since the Nov. 27 win over the Arizona Coyotes. But thankfully, is set to return in Edmonton and will have the task of keeping some elite talent at bay for his first game in almost two weeks.
The 29-year-old blueliner returned to practice on Wednesday, but during morning skate on Friday, was seen back in his normal spot next to Matt Dumba, no doubt signaling a return to action.
