injury worries in the wild

Joel Eriksson EK fails "weeks, not days" after he was injured in an overtime game against the Vancouver Canucks. This injury sets another low point for the game, which already had to compete without the defensive key player Jonas Brodin and the offensive wing player Mats Zuccarello. In addition, Eriksson EK was the team's most reliable scorer before his injury and 13 points in 22 games, which significantly increases the pressure on the remaining players, according to The New York Times .

The Minnesota Wild, despite the personal difficulties, have an impressive season with 17-4-4 and are currently leading the NHL into points and goals per game.

The team hopes that Eriksson EK will soon be back and, together with Goalie Filip Gustavsson, make a decisive difference to bring the game back to the way of success.
