Josh Harding allowed two goals on 29 shots in the Wild's 3-2 shootout win over the Flames Thursday night.

With the win tonight, Harding is now 11-10-4 on the season.

Josh Harding was perfect in the Wild's 2-0 win over the Canucks Monday night. Coach Yeo's top goaltender, Niklas Backstrom, is still dealing with a groin injury and Harding should see plenty of action down the stretch. Harding made 33 saves tonight for his second shutout of the season and his first victory since Jan. 21 over Dallas.

Josh Harding (lower body) was healthy enough to serve as Minnesota's backup goaltender on Sunday. The Wild have a shortage of healthy and available goaltenders in their organization, so this spared them a potential headache. Harding has a 2.79 GAA and .913 save percentage in 28 games this season.

The Wild are hoping that Josh Harding will be able to dress as Matthew Hackett's backup Sunday against the Flames. There were some positive reports from the doctors about Harding's upper body injury on Saturday. If Harding is unable to suit up, Minnesota coach Mike Yeo says he has a few unknown bodies he can look to to backup Hackett. Very mysterious.

Josh Harding's lower body injury isn't expected to be a long-term problem. It's entirely possible that Harding will be able to serve as the backup goaltender on Sunday, which would simplify things for the Wild. Niklas Backstrom is already out and Minnesota is also without their fourth string goaltender Darcy Kuemper (upper body) and fifth string option Dennis Endras (Europe).
