Big news from Minnesota, this morning, as the Wild get ready to face the Penguins, tomorrow night. Fans from both sides who were hoping to see their Hall of Famer face his first NHL team, just as his former counterpart did last night, are in for a disappointment, as Marc-André Fleury has been ruled out with an upper-body injury, with no timeline set for return.
No specific injury has been listed, but Fleury was pretty active in the 2-1 loss against Nashville, last night.

This could mean we're looking at a Zane McIntyre call-up, but an official announcement has yet to be made.
As of now, Filip Gustavsson will be the Wild goalie facing Crosby and the Penguins tomorrow night.
This season, Gustavsson is 1 and 3 of the 4 games he's started, but with a SV% of .914, and in his overall career, he has a decent record of 27-11-16 with a SV% of .906.
