Wild's Zucker Out 3 Months With Broken Collar Bone

ST. PAUL, Minn. (WCCO) – The Minnesota Wild got their sixth straight win Monday night, but it came at a price with two players suffering significant injuries.

The Wild announced Tuesday that Jason Zucker, the team's second-leading scorer with 18 goals, is out with a broken collar bone. He will need to have surgery, which will happen Thursday, and is expected to be out three months.

Ryan Carter was also injured in Monday night's victory. He suffered an upper body injury and will be out at least one month.

Coach Mike Yeo said before Tuesday's game at Winnipeg that goalie Devan Dubynk will play against the Jets.
