Wild's Jared Spurgeon: Scores game-winning tally
Spurgeon scored the game-winning goal in Saturday's 3-2 overtime win over the Predators.
The captain of the Wild netted his third goal of the season in Saturday's victory. He came through when the team needed him the most, as he blasted a wrister past Juuse Saros just one minute into OT to extend Minnesota's winning streak to three straight games. The 35-year-old veteran endured a rough start to 2024-25 but is turning things around. He has compiled three goals and one assist in his last two outings.

Wild's Jared Spurgeon: Two-goal effort to break drought
Spurgeon scored two goals including the game-winner in Friday's 3-2 victory over Chicago.
The veteran blueliner last found the back of the net on April 8, 2023, going 33 regular-season games -- plus six more playoff contests -- without a goal, but Spurgeon ended his drought midway through the second period when his shot attempt from in close deflected in off Connor Murphy's skate. Spurgeon's good puck luck didn't end there, though. Later in the frame, his seemingly harmless wrister from the blue line trickled into the net after Petr Mrazek failed to squeeze it with his glove. Spurgeon has eight points in 17 games on the season, adding 32 shots on net, 28 blocked shots, 12 hits and a plus-7 rating to his ledger.

Wild's Jared Spurgeon: Logs another helper
Spurgeon produced an assist, three shots on goal, five blocked shots and two hits in Saturday's 2-1 loss to the Stars.
Spurgeon has a helper in each of the last two contests after going four games without a point. The 34-year-old defenseman has struggled to carve out much offense this season, though it doesn't help that he missed six games due to a lower-body injury in October. Spurgeon is now at five helpers, 22 shots on net, 19 blocked shots, eight hits and a plus-3 rating over 11 appearances. That matches his point total from 16 outings in 2023-24, a season which was cut short by multiple injuries that required surgery.

Wild's Jared Spurgeon: Dishes power-play assist in win
Spurgeon had a power-play assist, one shot on net and three blocked shots in Thursday's 3-0 win over Montreal.
Spurgeon simply slid a puck to Marco Rossi, who changed his angle slightly and went far side past Sam Montembeault midway through the third period. Spurgeon, who missed six games with a lower-body injury in October, is not quite at his normal TOI. The 34-year-old defenseman, who averaged 23:20 of ice time in 2023-24, is averaging 19:35 TOI since returning to action seven games ago.

Wild's Jared Spurgeon: Dishes pair of helpers
Spurgeon notched two assists, two shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Sunday's 2-1 overtime win over the Maple Leafs.
Spurgeon helped out on Ryan Hartman's goal in the first period and Matt Boldy's game-winner in overtime. This was the first time in five outings Spurgeon has exceeded 20 minutes of ice time, logging 22:00 in Sunday's win. The 34-year-old has three helpers, five shots on net, nine blocked shots, four hits and a plus-4 rating while filling a top-four role since recovering from a lower-body injury.

Following a six-game absence, Spurgeon will return to his top-four role and could see time on the power play. The 34-year-old blueliner has one assist, two shots on goal, six blocked shots and four hits through two appearances this season. Spurgeon will replace Declan Chisholm in Tuesday's lineup.

Wild's Jared Spurgeon: Set to miss time
Spurgeon (lower body) won't be available for the start of the Wild's upcoming five-game road trip, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports Thursday.
Given the timeline provided by general manager Bill Guerin, Spurgeon should probably be expected to miss at least the next two games versus the Blue Jackets and Panthers on Saturday and Tuesday, respectively, though it could certainly be longer. Without the veteran blueliner sidelined, the club will likely recall Daemon Hunt from the minors, while Jon Merrill could see the bulk of the extra minutes.

Wild's Jared Spurgeon: Remains out Tuesday
Spurgeon (lower body) has been ruled out versus St. Louis on Tuesday.
Spurgeon will be out of action for his second straight contest due to his lower-body problem. Without the veteran blueliner in the lineup, Declan Chisholm should see the biggest uptick in ice time, playing alongside Jonas Brodin. Once given the all-clear, Spurgeon should reclaim his place in the lineup which will relegate Jon Merrill to a spot in the press box while Daemon Hunt returns to AHL Iowa.

Wild's Jared Spurgeon: Nets two goals
Spurgeon scored two goals in a 7-2 preseason victory over Chicago on Tuesday.
Spurgeon and the Wild were up against Blackhawks goaltender Drew Commesso, who has no NHL experience, so take this exhibition showing from the 34-year-old defenseman with a grain of salt. Still, it seems to demonstrate that he's recovered from his hip and back surgeries, which he underwent in February and March, respectively. Spurgeon was limited to 16 regular-season appearances in 2023-24, recording no goals, five assists, 14 hits and 29 blocks.

Wild's Jared Spurgeon: Ready to rock
Spurgeon (hip) is not playing Saturday in the preseason opener versus the Jets, but he is skating with the non-game group.
Spurgeon underwent hip surgery in February and back surgery in March. Despite the significant procedures, he is active for training camp as initially expected. The 34-year-old is set to play in a top-four role in 2024-25, but he has missed significant time in three of the last five seasons, so fantasy managers will have to acknowledge some risk if they're interested in the defenseman.

Wild's Jared Spurgeon: Progressing well
Spurgeon (hip) said Friday that he is feeling very good and is confident he will be ready to play next season, according to Michael Russo of The Athletic.
Spurgeon missed the last 46 games of the season. He managed to dress in only 16 games in 2023-24, picking up five assists, with three coming on the power play. Look for Spurgeon to return to the 35-40 point range if he can remain healthy next season.

Wild's Jared Spurgeon: Will miss rest of season
Spurgeon is scheduled to undergo left hip surgery Feb. 6 followed by back surgery roughly four weeks later. He will miss the rest of 2023-24 but is expected to be ready for training camp.
Spurgeon, who last played Jan. 2, had five assists, 12 hits and 29 blocks in 16 games this campaign. The 34-year-old is still signed with the Wild at a $7.575 million cap hit through 2026-27. If he can stay healthy next season, there's a decent chance he'll rebound by recording 30-40 points while serving in a top-four capacity.

Wild's Jared Spurgeon: Lands on injured reserve
Spurgeon (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve Wednesday.
It's unclear if Spurgeon's trip to IR is related to his previous lower-body injury that cost him seven contests in December. The 34-year-old blueliner will be out until at least Jan. 10, though the Wild have not provided a timeline for his return. Daemon Hunt was recalled from AHL Iowa to take Spurgeon's place on the roster.
