The Minnesota Wild (41-28-6) is on the road tonight against the New York Rangers (35-32-7) for a 6:00 game.
Defenseman Declan Chisholm will enter the lineup tonight for the Wild. He had missed the last four games due to a lower-body injury. During those four games, the Wild went with a five forward power play unit to have a left-shot guy run the point.
It will be interesting to see if that sticks or if Chisholm, the left-shot defender, runs the power play or not.
Chisholm, 25, has two goals, 12 points, and two power play points in 61 games for the Wild this year. One of his two goals was on the power play.
Jon Merrill will be taken out of the lineup for Chisholm tonight.
