Sundqvist scored a goal on three shots, levied four hits and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 7-3 loss to the Stars in Game 2.
EDGE Analysis
Sundqvist missed five games with a lower-body injury, and his 12:43 of ice time Wednesday suggests he was still being eased in. The 29-year-old got the Wild on the board at 16:11 of the first period. He was solid in 67 outings between Minnesota and Detroit in the regular season, posting 10 goals, 18 assists, 63 hits and 69 shots on net in a middle-six role. Without a clear path to power-play time, he'll likely struggle to generate offense in the postseason.

Sundqvist dished two assists in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Jets.
EDGE Analysis
Sundqvist picked up his first points as a member of the Wild in his second game with the team. He assisted on goals by linemates Marcus Foligno and Frederick Gaudreau. That trio can chip in offense occasionally, but it will be relied upon primarily for physicality, and Sundqvist contributed in that department with one hit and four PIM.

The Wild have acquired Sundqvist from the Red Wings in exchange for a fourth-round pick in 2023.
EDGE Analysis
Sundqvist has seven goals and 21 points in 52 games this season, including two goals and five assists on the power play. The 28-year-old should find a spot as a bottom-six forward for the Wild.
