Russo says if the morning skate goes well today that both Kap and Ek could play tonight.

Confirmed in his Athletic post this AM.

Quote

As long as everything goes well in Wednesday’s morning skate, both players are expected to play, multiple NHL sources tell The Athletic.

 

If Kaprizov is to be activated off long-term injured reserve Wednesday, the Wild will have to make a couple of roster moves. That would likely be reassigning Devin Shore and Brendan Gaunce to Iowa. Both forwards recently cleared waivers as the Wild prepared for this eventuality.

If Kaprizov and Eriksson Ek return, the Wild’s lone missing player will be defenseman Jake Middleton, who is day-to-day with an upper-body injury.

On NHL.com they have them listed as being in with the projected lineup being:

Marcus Foligno -- Joel Eriksson Ek -- Matt Boldy

Kirill Kaprizov -- Marco Rossi -- Mats Zuccarello

Marcus Johansson -- Frederick Gaudreau -- Gustav Nyquist

Yakov Trenin -- Ryan Hartman -- Justin Brazeau

The lineup sure looks better with those 2 guys in.  Our top 2 lines start to look like legitimate top 2 lines.

Kinda surprised they didn't keep Rossi with Boldy & Moose after the chemistry they've built but Hynes is fluid so he may switch mid-game. Kinda miffed about Braz in for Hinny too but it may be a reward for how he played against Dallas and they're trying to see if he can sustain it for the playoff chase.

They might still.  I have looked at these projected lines before and they are not always right.
