Foligno (lower body) will not be in the lineup to face the Coyotes on Thursday, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
With a back-to-back on the schedule, Foligno could struggle to get into the lineup versus Colorado on Friday, though he hasn't been officially ruled out. With Brandon Duhaime headed to the Avs via a trade, youngster Adam Beckman should see additional minutes for the Wild on Thursday. Once given the all-clear, Foligno should stake his claim for a top-six role.

Foligno (lower body) will travel with the Wild to Arizona and might return for Thursday's game versus the Coyotes, per Jessi Pierce of NHL.com.
EDGE Analysis
Foligno, who last played Feb. 9, has nine goals, 20 points, 52 PIM and 163 hits in 47 contests this season. If he's able to return Thursday, then Foligno will likely serve in a bottom-six capacity while Mason Shaw might be a healthy scratch.

Foligno (lower body) was placed on injured reserve Monday.
EDGE Analysis
In a corresponding move, Connor Dewar (lower body) was activated from the IR list. Foligno was already expected to miss Minnesota's next two games, so his placement on injured reserve won't impact his timetable. He has nine goals, 20 points and 52 PIM in 47 games this season.

EDGE Analysis
Foligno, who didn't practice Sunday, is poised to sit out Monday's contest against Vegas and Wednesday's matchup versus Arizona. He has notched nine goals and 20 points in 47 games this season. Connor Dewar (lower body) may replace Foligno in the lineup Monday. Minnesota also summoned Adam Beckman from AHL Iowa on Sunday to serve as an extra forward during the team's two-game road trip.

Foligno scored a goal on two shots, added nine PIM, logged three hits and blocked two shots in Wednesday's 2-1 win over the Blackhawks.
EDGE Analysis
Foligno was not initially expected to play Wednesday, but he was in the lineup and noticeable on the ice. He was responsible for all of the Wild's penalties in the game, but he atoned for that with the game-winning goal midway through the third period. The winger is up to 20 points, 49 shots on net, 132 hits, 52 PIM, 32 blocked shots and a plus-12 rating through 46 appearances this season.

Foligno (illness) is expected to play versus the Blackhawks on Wednesday despite a prior report to the contrary, per the NHL media site.
EDGE Analysis
Foligno is listed in the lineup while Adam Beckman is among the scratches. Foligno was out sick for the Wild's last game before their bye week, so it's not a surprise that he appears poised to return without missing additional time. The winger should be expected to play in a middle-six role against Chicago.

Foligno (illness) isn't expected to play Wednesday versus Chicago, according to Michael Russo of The Athletic.
EDGE Analysis
Foligno also missed Minnesota's 3-2 loss to Anaheim on Jan. 27, which was the Wild's last game before the All-Star break. He has eight goals, 19 points, 129 hits and 30 blocks in 45 outings in 2023-24. The Wild aren't expected to adjust their lineup Wednesday, so Jon Merrill is set to dress for the second straight contest.

Foligno tallied a goal and an assist in Tuesday's 5-3 victory over Washington.
EDGE Analysis
Foligno extended Minnesota's lead to 2-0 early in the opening frame, snagging the puck out of midair before stuffing it past Darcy Kuemper. He'd add a second point with an assist on Joel Eriksson Ek's third-period marker. Foligno came into the contest with just two points (a goal and an assist) in his prior eight games. Overall, the 32-year-old winger is up to eight goals and 19 points through 44 outings this season.
