Scandella (ankle) was designated for long-term injured reserve Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Even if Scandella was retroactively placed on LTIR, he should be expected to miss at least the next two weeks due to this high ankle sprain. The blueliner has garnered a meager one assist through seven outings this season, not the type of production to instill confidence in fantasy owners. In order to add some additional defensive depth, the Wild recalled Mike Reilly from the minors.
