As expected, the Minnesota Wild have placed defenseman and captain Jared Spurgeon on injured reserve considering he’s likely to miss the next two to three weeks with a lower-body injury.
The Minnesota Wild have assigned forward Brendan Gaunce and defenseman Carson Lambos to the AHL’s Iowa Wild, per Michael Russo of The Athletic. Russo points out that these moves could indicate that Minnesota could get multiple injured players back before they host St.
NHL head coaches have to hire good assistants. They have to set an overarching philosophy, juggle lineup configurations, and do the kind of “man management” that is impossible to track statistically.
Carson Lambos is ready to break into the NHL and should benefit from a good support system. The 20-year-old defenseman from Winnipeg could soon help balance the load on the left side for Jonas Brodin and Jacob Middleton.
