Spurgeon (neck) won't play Saturday versus the Canucks, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Spurgeon will be forced to miss at least one game after taking a puck to the throat in Friday's contest versus the Flames. The 35-year-old defenseman should be considered day-to-day ahead of the Wild's regular-season finale Tuesday versus the Ducks. Cameron Crotty will enter Saturday's lineup to replace Spurgeon.
