Happy Thursday to everyone, but especially two surprising returns for the Minnesota Wild. Both Jordan Greenway and Jon Merrill were unable to start the season with the team due to still recovering from injuries or offseason surgery to heal those injuries. The original timeline was they they were going to miss five to 10 games, but just three games into the season — and the team kind of not feeling too hot losing all three — the two players have returned to game shape.
Greenway will be making his return to the lineup tonight against the Vancouver Canucks, while Merrill will sit one more game because Alex Goligoski (who he is most likely to replace) is going to be appearing in his 1,000th NHL game tonight. An incredible achievement that deserves some patience from a player returning from injury.
That’s Wild
