Jesper Wallstedt Set To Start Vs Vegas On Sunday

ST. PAUL - The Minnesota Wild (20-6-4) are back in action following their win over the Philadelphia Flyers on Saturday. The Wild are set to host the Vegas Golden Knights (19-8-3) tonight.

Following Saturday's win, the Wild made a roster move. They placed Jakub Lauko on the Injured Reserve and recalled goaltender Jesper Wallstedt on an emergency loan.

Wild head coach John Hynes confirmed pregame that Wallstedt will start tonight with Marc-Andre Fleury as the backup. Filip Gustavsson is "getting looked at" according to Hynes.

But he did say that it is nothing long-term for Gustavsson.
