It is unclear what is ailing Hague but he will not be available on Thursday. Dylan Coghlan skated on the top line in the morning skate and will likely take Hague's spot there in the game.


Jost was acquired from the Avalanche on Tuesday and will make his Wild debut vs. the Bruins. Jost will start on the fourth line with Nick Bjugstad and Brandon Duhaime. Jost has just 14 points (6G / 8A) in 59 games this season and 103 points (45G / 58A) in 321 career NHL games.

Jost was selected No.10 overall in 2016 but has struggled to produce offensively, largely due to his role. Jost has played primarily as a bottom-6 forward this season due to the impressive depth in Colorado. Jost could play a more offensive role in Minnesota and heads there with six goals and eight assists (14 points) in 59 games this season.




Mutter is an undrafted free agent out of the OHL, where he has scored nine goals with eight assists (17 points) in 44 games between the Hamilton Bulldogs and Kitchener Rangers.





Marchessault was not on the ice for the morning skate and is not expected to play because of the flu. Evgenii Dadonov will move to the second line with Marchessault out and Michael Amadio will draw into the lineup.
