EDGE Analysis

With the Wild trailing 3-1 after two periods, Eriksson Ek buried a rebound in the opening minute of the frame for the first of three straight Minnesota goals. It was the first goal of the year for the 23-year-old, who had eight goals and 29 points in 62 games in 2019-20. The 2015 first-round draft pick has yet to establish himself as a reliable offensive contributor and is not a fantasy viable fantasy option.
