Dumba posted an assist, three hits and three blocked shots in Monday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Sharks.
EDGE Analysis
Dumba was playing in his second game back after he missed three contests with a lower-body injury. The Canadian blueliner helped out on Kevin Fiala's game-tying goal in the third period, which forced overtime. Dumba has 12 points, 59 shots on net, 47 hits, 39 blocked shots and a plus-9 rating through 28 contests. He'll be an integral part of the Wild's defense corps on the ice, although he doesn't carry as much statistical value in standard fantasy formats.

Dumba was plus-1 with three hits and one block in Thursday's 2-0 win over the Blues.
EDGE Analysis
Dumba (lower body) was back following a three-game absence and logged just over 18 minutes of ice time on Minnesota's second pairing with Jonas Brodin. Dumba also saw regular duty on the penalty-killing unit. The 26-year-old has five goals and six assists in 27 games this season, along with a plus-8 rating, but owns just two helpers in his last seven contests.

Dumba (lower body) is considered day-to-day and won't play Wednesday against Anaheim, Jessi Pierce of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
There's a chance Dumba will be ready to return Thursday against St. Louis, but he should probably be considered questionable at best for that contest at this point. With Dumba on the shelf, look for Brad Hunt to continue skating on Minnesota's bottom pairing against the Ducks.

Dumba (lower body) is considered doubtful for Saturday's game against Colorado, Sarah McLellan of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Dumba suffered a lower-body injury when he fell into the boards awkwardly during Thursday's game versus the Avalanche and he'll miss at least one contest as a result. Luckily for the Wild, Carson Soucy will be eligible to return following his one-game suspension, so he'll likely take Dumba's spot in the lineup.
