Filip Gustavsson
G - Minnesota Wild
Next Game
Filip Gustavsson (lower body) has been placed on injured reserve by the Minnesota Wild according to the club.
Fantasy Impact
Gustavsson will undergo an MRI Tuesday and is currently considered week-to-week according to the club. In the netminder’s absence, fantasy managers can expect Marc-Andre Fleury to receive the majority of starts between the pipes, with Zane McIntyre serving as the team’s backup. Gustavsson currently carries a .903 save percentage and 2.95 GAA in 22 appearances (10-9-2) in the crease this season for the Wild.

Filip Gustavsson was solid in net for the Wild Saturday night, allowing two goals on 25 shots faced in a 2-1 loss to the Red Wings.
Fantasy Impact
Gustavsson has played admirably in net when called upon by the Wild, allowing three goals or less in two of three starts for a team starving for consistent goal scoring in front of the netminder. Gustavsson does not hold much viable fantasy value currently, picking up starts only when Minnesota No. 1 netminder Marc-Andre Fleury needs a rest. Gustavsson carries a 3.93 GAA and .878 save percentage in three starts (0-3-0) this season.
