Injury and Roster Update
Roope Hintz is confirmed to be unavailable for Game 3, following an adjusted recovery timeline announced before Monday’s game. The forward has not participated in skating activities since his injury on March 6. Furthermore, the Stars are set to deploy the identical lineup utilized in Game 2. For the Wild, forwards Mats Zuccarello and Yakov Trenin are being assessed as game-time decisions, having opted out of the team’s optional morning skate. If both players are cleared, Bobby Brink and Nico Sturm will be removed from the active roster; if only one is deemed fit to play, Brink will remain in the lineup, and Sturm will be a scratch.
