Foligno (lower body) won't play Thursday versus the Sharks, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Foligno attempted to give it a go in warmups, but he ultimately left after one line rush. The Wild will roll with seven defensemen instead with Alex Goligoski drawing into the lineup. Foligno will look to heal up ahead of Tuesday's game versus the Jets.

Foligno picked up an assist in Wednesday's 4-1 win over Detroit.

EDGE Analysis

Despite his helper, Foligno remains mired in a 10-game goal drought dating back to Nov. 23 versus Winnipeg when he scored a pair of goals. The Wild's entire third line of Foligno, Jordan Greenway and Joel Eriksson Ek has been struggling of late, which could open up opportunities for things to be shuffled around, especially once Ryan Hartman (upper body) is cleared to return.

Foligno required stitches for an injury behind his ear, but Michael Russo of The Athletic reports the winger will be fine after Wednesday's game versus the Jets.

EDGE Analysis

Foligno left the contest late in the third period. He scored twice prior to his exit, bringing his goal total for the year to three. He's added three helpers, 50 hits, 17 shots on net and 16 PIM through 14 contests. Foligno's place in the lineup isn't in jeopardy with the addition on Ryan Reaves via trade from the Rangers, but they play a similar style and any prolonged slump could eat into Foligno's ice time. Check back on his status prior to Friday's game versus the Maple Leafs to make sure his injury doesn't cost him time.

Foligno (upper body) will return to the lineup Friday against Seattle, according to Joe Smith of The Athletic.

EDGE Analysis

Foligno missed five games with the injury. He has two assists in eight games this season, a far cry from his career year in 2021-22, when he had 23 goals and 42 points. He will replace Tyson Jost in the lineup.

Foligno (upper body) is aiming to play Friday against the Kraken, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

That essentially rules out Foligno for Minnesota's next two games, but he could be back before the end of the team's road trip. He has been sidelined since Oct. 29.

Foligno (upper body) won't be an option for the Wild's next two contests, Sarah McLellan of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Despite being ruled out for the first outing of Minnesota's upcoming three-game road trip, Foligno may still travel with the team. Prior to his absence, the Buffalo native was mired in a six-game goal drought during which he recorded just six shots and one helper.

Foligno (upper body) won't play Tuesday against Montreal, Sarah McLellan of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

Foligno also wasn't available to play Sunday versus the Blackhawks. Minnesota has run into some injuries up front, as Ryan Hartman (upper body) and Jordan Greenway (upper body) also won't play Tuesday.

Foligno (upper body) will not play Sunday against the Blackhawks, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Foligno will be further evaluated in Minnesota before the team provides an update on his return timeline. The veteran winger has three points through eight games this season. Tyson Jost will enter the lineup Sunday in Foligno's absence.

Foligno registered a power-play assist in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Bruins.

EDGE Analysis

There should be more attention on Foligno this season considering he racked up career highs in goals (23) and assists (19) in 2021-22. Minnesota entered Saturday's contest with the league's second-best power play -- behind only the Avalanche -- and Foligno's participation on the No. 2 power-play unit helps the punishing winger stay relevant in deep fantasy leagues.

Foligno notched two assists and went plus-2 in Friday's 5-1 win over the Blues in Game 3.

EDGE Analysis

Foligno helped out on goals by linemates Jordan Greenway and Joel Eriksson Ek as the Wild got key contributions from their third line. These were Foligno's first two points of the postseason, though he's added four shots on net, six hits, 14 PIM and a plus-4 rating. The winger enjoyed a career year in the regular season with 23 goals, 19 assists, 238 hits and 112 PIM in 74 outings.
