Forward Matt Boldy did not practice Monday and is considered week-to-week because of a lower-body injury.
Boldy did not play in the Wild’s preseason opener Saturday at Winnipeg but did skate earlier in the day. The team had a day off Sunday before returning to the ice Monday to practice the penalty kill, which was going to include Boldy.
Coach John Hynes said the team anticipates Boldy being ready to return near the end of camp.
The Wild’s final preseason game is Oct. 4 at Chicago before the season opener Oct. 10 vs. Columbus at Xcel Energy Center.
Last season, Boldy finished with 29 goals and 40 assists for 69 points. The 23-year-old was the 12th overall pick in the 2019 draft out of the U.S. national team development program. He played two seasons at Boston College before joining the Wild.
