Check the list of walking wounded for the Minnesota Wild seems like most of them will be rehabing injuires for a good part of the summer. They will be lucky to field a full team next fall. You have to wonder if the push to make the playoffs took a big toll on the Wild. I don't know how they could have competed if they had made the playoffs.
Look at this rehab list as of now:
Niklas Backstrom — out four to six months following hip surgery Friday
Brent Burns — post-concussion syndrome and shoulder surgery Thursday that will require four months to heal.
Andrew Brunette — reconstructive knee surgery, out four to six months
Derek Boogaard — shoulder surgery Tuesday, out two months
Pierre-Marc Bouchard — concussion
(the way the B’s are dropping, Marc-Andre Bergeron better be careful walking across the street)
Nick Schultz — concussion
Tyler Cuma — still recovering from knee surgery
Oops, forgot Dan Fritsche - broken collarbone
Oh, and I forgot a fairly major one: Mikko Koivu — sprained knee
