Wild will be without Joel Eriksson Ek and Jonas Brodin for first two games of series vs. Avs
DENVER — The Minnesota Wild will be without forward Joel Eriksson Ek and defenseman Jonas Brodin for the first two games of their second-round series against the Colorado Avalanche because of lower-body injuries. Neither player made the trip to Denver. Wild coach John Hynes said the team is still “making a couple decisions on the lineup” ahead of Game 1 on Sunday night. The Avalanche will be without defenseman Josh Manson, who missed the series clincher against the Los Angeles Kings last Sunday with an upper-body injury. Avs coach Jared Bednar said Nick Blankenburg will slide into Manson’s place. The team acquired Blankenburg in a deal with Nashville on March 4. “He’s played good in the time he’s been with us,” Bednar said. “We got him for a reason - like the way he moves, like the way he moves the puck. He plays with a little bite. He’s got to stay within himself. It’s going to be a challenge for him tonight, because the thing we’ll miss with (Manson) is the size, the strength, the physicality.” Eriksson Ek had three goals and two assists in the Wild’s first-round series win over Dallas. He finished with a 56.4% faceoff win

Hynes called him “hopeful” for Game 3. He said the team was deciding between Danila Yurov and Hunter Haight to replace him in the lineup.Defenseman Jonas Brodin (lower body) also remained in Minnesota. Jeff Petry came into the lineup for Brodin in Game 6 of the first-round series against the Dallas Stars, but Daemon Hunt said he is in for Game 1 against the Avalanche.Wild president of hockey operations and general manager Bill Guerin said the team is hoping the three off days between Games 2 and 3 help Eriksson Ek and Brodin return without missing too much action. “They’re important players in our lineup, but you just can’t cry over it,” Guerin told The Athletic. “You just have to be prepared, be ready. Be ready with the guys that are able to play, and when those guys come back, they come back. But this is
