M_Nels Verified Member Posted Tuesday at 04:37 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 04:37 PM Kirill Kaprizov missed practice Tuesday and, according to multiple league sources, there have been discussions between Kaprizov, Minnesota Wild management and doctors over the past few days over whether Kaprizov should undergo surgery this week for a lower-body injury that has been ailing him since mid-December. If Kaprizov undergoes surgery, league sources say he could miss around six weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pewterschmidt Verified Member Posted Tuesday at 04:51 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 04:51 PM This would definitely leave a mark. silver lining: this will force Boldy's official coming out party as an offensive line driver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MacGyver Verified Member Posted Tuesday at 05:22 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 05:22 PM Not surprised. He went from being day to day to missing 12 games. Injuries can turn into nagging injuries and nagging injuries can sometimes become sustained injuries. Lets hope that's not the case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldDutchChip Verified Member Posted Tuesday at 05:55 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 05:55 PM (edited) well it does allow us to let him recover till PO and use some of his $ on a trade (vegas style). 10 pts at this time is a bit steep to overcome so i think Wild limps to the PO. this too may help us in the Long run with Kirill, if he is not 100% .... he may say "i ain't go out like that - i am wild lifer - and signs off on July"....too many variables! well now go get a star and let KK heal.

MacGyver Verified Member Posted Tuesday at 08:24 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 08:24 PM I guess this is the advantage to the 4 Nations tourney. Two weeks of no games being played but the time still counts towards Kaprizov's recovery. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
