Dubnyk will guard the home cage in Sunday's game against the Islanders, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports.

EDGE Analysis

Dubnyk has been strong in his return from a personal absence, going 3-0-0 along with a 2.81 GAA and .917 save percentage in four appearances. He'll face a nice matchup against an Islanders offense that ranks 19th in the league in goals per game this campaign (2.89).

Dubnyk allowed four goals on 44 shots in a 6-4 victory over the Avalanche on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

It's been a really rough season for Dubnyk, but he at least posted a shutout in his last outing and made 40 saves Friday. Those are positives he'll have to build on because, at the moment, Dubnyk probably doesn't warrant a spot in the starting lineup. He is 7-8-2 with a 3.24 GAA and .898 save percentage this season.

Dubnyk will get the starting nod versus the Avalanche on the road Friday, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Dubnyk is coming off a 22-save shutout performance over the Flames on Monday. The veteran netminder has earned wins in each of his two starts since rejoining the club following a personal leave of absence and will look to make it three in a row Friday. A clash with the league's most potent offense (3.62 goals per game), however, won't improve Dubnyk's odds of securing a victory.

Dubnyk made 22 saves in Monday's 3-0 win over the Flames.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran goalie had a rough start to the season before being away from the team for over a month to deal with a family matter, but Dubnyk finally looked like his old self Monday as he recorded his first shutout of the year. He's now 6-8-2 with a 3.19 GAA and .897 save percentage.

Dubnyk will defend the cage at home versus the Flames on Monday, Jessi Pierce of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Dubnyk gave up five goals on 40 shots in his previous start but still walked away with a win over Arizona. The veteran netminder made a brief appearance off the bench against Winnipeg on Saturday in which he stopped all three shots he faced in 12:07 of ice time. While Dubnyk continues to be the primary option between the pipes for Minnesota, his wife's illness could see him step away from the team from time to time.

Dubnyk surrendered five goals on 40 shots in an 8-5 win over the Coyotes.

EDGE Analysis

Dubnyk's first start in over a month was not pretty, but plenty of offensive support from the Wild earned him the win anyway. The 33-year-old improved to 5-8-2 with a 3.48 GAA and an .891 save percentage in 15 appearances this year.

Dubnyk will guard the cage on the road versus the Coyotes on Thursday, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

It will be the first start for Dubnyk since Nov. 16 against Carolina, missing the past 15 games in order to attend to a family matter. The last time the netminder squared off with Arizona, he stopped 32 of 34 shots to earn the win. No doubt the 33-year-old will have 18 guys in front of him desperate to try to earn him another victory.

Dubnyk (personal) has been activated off injured reserve and will serve as the team's backup for Tuesday's game against Vegas, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Tuesday will mark the first time that Dubnyk has dressed for game action since Nov. 16, as he's been away from the team while tending to a family matter. Alex Stalock will get the start Tuesday; however, Dubnyk's return opens the door for the possibility for him to return to the crease for Thursday's road clash against Arizona. The 33-year-old hasn't been great this season, going just 4-8-2 along with a 3.36 GAA and .893 save percentage in 14 appearances.

Dubnyk (personal) won't start Tuesday in Vegas but could dress as the backup, Sarah McLellan of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

Dubnyk hasn't appeared in a game since Nov. 16 but it looks like he's on track to return soon. If he does dress Tuesday, there's a chance that he could make his return to action Thursday in Arizona.

Dubnyk (personal) will travel with the Wild on its upcoming three-game road trip, Jessi Pierce of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Dubnyk won't be considered an option to start until the last game of the road trip Thursday against Arizona, but the fact that he's traveling with the team suggests he should be back at practice within the next few days. Once Dubnyk's given the green light, Kaapo Kahkonen will likely be returned to the minors.
