After a rare rough start in net by Jesper Wallstedt resulted in a 4-2 loss to the Vancouver Canucks, head coach John Hynes updated the media in regards to the health of young forward Marco Rossi. Unfortunately, it’s not what fans want to hear.
According to The Athletic’s Joe Smith, Hynes described Rossi’s time line as “week-to-week”. In hockey parlance, that could be anywhere from tomorrow to four months. The 24-year-old center has been skating on his own, but hasn’t appeared in action since sustaining an injury against the San Jose Sharks in the Wild’s 2-1 overtime loss on November 11.
