Goalie Start
Bobrovsky will start Game 3 in Washington.

Alex Goligoski replacing Kulikov is the only lineup change that the Wild will make for Game 2 vs. the Blues. Kulikov was a minus-2 with one shot and one hit in 15:50 TOI in the 4-0 loss in Game 1.
Ekblad has been out since March 18th but is set to play in Game 1 of the postseason. Ekblad will log huge minutes on the top with Mackenzie Weegar and return to the top power-play unit right away. He had an outstanding season, finishing fifth among defensemen in points-per-game (0.93).
