Fleury (upper body) was placed on the injured reserve list Wednesday, per Michael Russo of The Athletic.

EDGE Analysis

There's no timetable for Fleury's return yet, but putting him on the injured reserve list rules him out for at least a week. As long as he's unavailable, the Wild are likely to lean heavily on Filip Gustavsson. Zane McIntyre was called up to serve as the backup goaltender.

Fleury is being evaluated for an upper-body injury Wednesday, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.

Fleury allowed two goals on 25 shots in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to the Predators.

EDGE Analysis

Aside from giving up both goals in a span of 44 seconds in the first period, Fleury put together a strong game. The Wild's offense scored less than two goals for the fourth time in six games, leading to the tough loss for the 37-year-old goalie. He's now 6-4-1 with a 2.80 GAA and a .906 save percentage through 12 starts. Fleury's done his part with two or fewer goals allowed in four of his last five games, so he should have no trouble holding onto the starting role. Next up is a home game versus his original team, the Penguins, on Thursday.

Fleury is expected to start Tuesday on the road against Nashville, per Joe Smith of The Athletic.

He's 6-3-1 with a 2.87 GAA and .905 save percentage in 11 contests this season. Nashville has the 29th-ranked offense with 2.60 goals per game, so Fleury has a good opportunity to extend his hot streak.

The 37-year-old goalie is at 6-3-1 with a 2.87 GAA and a .905 save percentage through 11 outings. The Wild return home for their next game Sunday versus the Sharks.

EDGE Analysis

Fleury returns to the net after getting the night off Wednesday in Anaheim. Fleury got off to a rocky start this season, giving up 11 goals on 49 shots in his first two games, but he's turned his season around since then, giving up 19 goals on 239 shots in his last eight games. He is 5-3-1 with a 3.17 GAA and an .896 save percentage and will face the Kraken, who are looking for their sixth straight win.

EDGE Analysis

The game was scoreless until Gabriel Vilardi put the Kings on the board at 13:57 of the third period. Fleury turned in one of his sharpest outings of the year, only to end up with his second straight loss. The 37-year-old is now at 5-3-1 with a 3.17 GAA and an .896 save percentage. He's allowed just nine goals over his last four outings, as his ratios remain weighed down by a few bad games early on.

EDGE Analysis

Fleury has a 5-2-1 record, 3.41 GAA and .888 save percentage in nine games this season. His GAA and save percentage look bad, but he has been doing better lately.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran netminder kept Seattle off the board in the first period, but everything went the Kraken's way for the final 40 minutes, including the bounces -- their third goal deflected in off Alexander Wennberg's back, one of three pucks to get past Fleury on deflections or tip-ins. It's his first regulation loss since the Wild's opener, and over his last seven starts Fleury sports a 5-1-1 record with a 2.50 GAA and .914 save percentage.

Fleury will guard the home goal during Thursday's game versus the Kraken, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Fleury has been on a roll recently, stringing together four straight wins while posting an admirable 1.72 GAA and .940 save percentage. He'll try to secure his sixth victory of the season in a home matchup with a Seattle squad that's averaging 3.45 goals per game this campaign, 10th in the NHL.
