"With the All-Star break over, the Wild resumes practice this afternoon at Xcel Energy Center at 2 o'clock. I'm hearing Chad Rau, Jed Ortmeyer and Matt Kassian, who were part of the Wild's two-game winning streak over Dallas and Colorado before the break, will all return.

Hopefully we'll get injury updates on Mikko Koivu, Pierre-Marc Bouchard and Guillaume Latendresse later, too."
