Kaprizov has missed the past 10 games with a lower-body injury that has required lots of treatments and pushed-back timetables.

Minnesota held a practice back home in St. Paul on Tuesday. Faber and Kaprizov did not practice with the team but they did skate on their own. Spurgeon and Lauko also skated on their own. Brodin has yet to skate. The Wild host the Edmonton Oilers tomorrow. It doesn't sound like either of the five injured Wild players will play.

Kirill Kaprizov continues to make progress towards a return from a lower-body injury. The star Minnesota Wild forward has missed the last eight games due to the injury, but he's skating on his own while continuing off-ice workouts,
