Jiricek was called up from AHL Iowa on Friday, per Dylan Loucks of The Hockey News.

EDGE Analysis

Carson Lambos was returned to Iowa in a corresponding move. Jiricek has a goal and five points in 15 outings with Iowa in 2025-26. He also has appeared in 18 games with Minnesota this season, recording no points, 12 PIM, 11 shots, five hits and 14 blocks.

Jiricek was demoted to AHL Iowa on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Jiricek's reassignment provides the team with the necessary roster space to activate Daemon Hunt (undisclosed) from injured reserve. In 18 games for the Wild, the 22-year-old Jiricek failed to generate a point but produced 11 shots, 12 PIM and five hits while averaging 12:08 of ice time.

Jiricek was recalled from AHL Iowa on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Jiricek's promotion to the NHL roster is a good indication that there is an injury on the blue line ahead of Monday's matchup with the Kings. Even with the defenseman's call-up, he may find himself watching from the press box as a healthy scratch. In the minors this year, Jiricek has notched one goal and two assists in 13 outings, so he probably shouldn't be expected to offer much in the way of offensive upside.

Jiricek has been reassigned to AHL Iowa by the Wild, the team announced Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Jiricek has bounced back-and-forth between Iowa and Minnesota all season long, and that will continue with his latest demotion. With the Wild's preferred top-six defensemen healthy and Matt Kiersted serving as the seventh defenseman, the Wild likely want to see the 22-year-old play rather than be a healthy scratch. Jiricek has no points in 18 games in the NHL this season.

Jiricek (lower body) will be in the lineup for Tuesday's home matchup versus the Capitals, Jessi Pierce of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jiricek exited Sunday's contest against the Bruins as a result of a lower-body injury, but he won't miss any additional action. The right-shot blueliner should skate on the third pairing alongside Matt Kiersted on Tuesday. The 22-year-old Jiricek has not recorded a point through 14 appearances this year.

Jiricek exited Sunday's game against the Bruins due to a lower-body injury, Dylan Loucks of The Hockey News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Head coach John Hynes didn't have an update on Jiricek's status following Sunday's matchup, so the defenseman's status for Tuesday's game against the Capitals isn't yet clear. Jiricek saw a relatively normal workload prior to his departure, as he logged 12:52 of ice time. If Jiricek is unable to suit up against Washington, Matt Kiersted will be a candidate to enter the lineup.

Jiricek is slated to be recalled from AHL Iowa on Friday, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Wild are apparently dealing with an injury on the blue line, hence the recall of Jiricek. He has yet to pick up a point in 12 NHL games this season with the Wild. Jiricek has one goal and a pair of assists in 10 AHL games this season.

Jiricek was demoted to AHL Iowa on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Jiricek was a healthy scratch in each of the Wild's last three games. The defenseman was held off the scoresheet in all 12 NHL appearances this season. Jiricek was selected sixth overall by Columbus in the 2022 Draft and traded to the Wild last season. Minnesota activated Zach Bogosian off injured reserve in a corresponding move.

Jiricek was summoned from AHL Iowa on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Jiricek could be in the lineup for Saturday's matchup against Philadelphia after Zach Bogosian (undisclosed) sustained an injury in Friday's 5-1 loss to Washington. The 23-year-old Jiricek has one assist in one minor-league game this season.

Jiricek was reassigned to AHL Iowa on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Jiricek's demotion leaves the Wild with just 22 players on the roster ahead of a four-game road trip that kicks off against the Capitals on Friday. It's possible the team adds a player to the NHL roster before it departs for the road, perhaps Matt Kiersted or Benjamin Gleason.
