Kunin is expected to miss about two weeks while dealing with an upper-body injury, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

The specifics surrounding the injury remain unclear, but the 22-year-old suffered the injury during the first period of Friday's game against the Oilers. Kunin is enjoying a career-best season, racking up 27 points, 119 shots and 61 hits across 59 games. As long as he's sidelined, look for Victor Rask, Ryan Donato and call-up Gerald Mayhew to vie for the lineup spot vacated by Kunin.

Kunin (upper body) will not return to Friday's game against the Oilers.

EDGE Analysis

Kunin played only 5:20 during the first period and did not return to the bench for the second. The 22-year-old should be considered day-to-day for now. The Wild's next game is Sunday against the Blues.

Kunin scored a goal on three shots and added two hits in Wednesday's 4-3 shootout win over the Canucks.

EDGE Analysis

Kunin snapped a nine-game goal drought with his second-period tally. The 22-year-old is up to 27 points, 118 shots, 61 hits and 55 PIM in 58 appearances this season, but he only has three points through nine games in February.

EDGE Analysis

Kunin generated 12 points over the first 34 games, but he's hot right now with nine points over the past 11 contests. The 2016 first-round pick is working on the third line and averaged 14:36 in that stretch, so his depth scoring will be integral if the Wild want to climb back into the playoff mix.

He now has a career-high 18 points in 41 games, and he might be a sneaky waiver pickup in deep formats if his mitts continue to stay warm.
