Jonas Brodin’s Injury is a Great Opportunity for the Wild

Jonas Brodin has a broken finger and should be out of the Wild’s lineup for about a month, if not more. Last season, Brodin only scored a paltry 7 points, but in only 43 games so far this season, he has already bounced back to score 16 points, three points away from his career high of 19. Brodin’s injury comes at an interesting time as the Wild are in the midst of a hunt to stay first in the West and are preparing for the NHL Expansion Draft in the summer. While the Wild could still lose a forward in the expansion draft, it seems most likely that the Wild will lose one of their defensemen.
