Minnesota Wild goaltender Filip Gustavsson (hip) is still rehabbing from offseason surgery, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports. Gustavsson underwent hip surgery in May and has had the entire summer to recover. However, it's unclear whether he will be able to participate in training camp. His availability for the start of the season is also uncertain. If Gustavsson isn't available for action, Jesper Wallstedt would be a busy man early in the campaign. It would also open opportunities for Calvin Pickard, who was snapped up as a free agent in July.

Minnesota Wild defenseman Jonas Brodin (lower body) is skating and healthy for training camp, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports. Brodin suffered a lower-body injury during the 2026 Stanley Cup Playoffs, missing Minnesota's final six games. Fortunately for the team, the Swedish veteran has recovered over the offseason and is ready for the new campaign. In 2026-27, Brodin will aim to play more than 62 regular-season games for the first time since 2021-22. He finished last season with 18 points (four goals, 14 assists), 76 SOG, 126 blocks, and a plus-19 rating in 62 outings. His lack of offense and durability issues keep Brodin's fantasy value low.

Minnesota Wild center Joel Eriksson Ek (heel) is healthy for the start of training camp, The Athletic's Michael Russo reports. The Swedish forward dealt with a heel injury late last season, missing Minnesota's final five postseason games. Having him back for the start of the new campaign is great news for the Wild. Eriksson Ek is a strong two-way player who finished last season with 51 points (19 goals, 32 assists), 194 SOG, and 106 hits, and a plus-16 rating in 70 outings. He has averaged 0.57 points and 1.77 hits per game in his NHL career.

Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Christopher Tanev (abdomen) is aiming to be available for training camp, David Alter of The Hockey News reports. "I mean, I'm feeling good. We still have to talk to the doctors, I think, in a week or two," Tanev said. "But the plan is hopefully I'm ready to rumble once everything gets going." Tanev's 2025-26 season was almost entirely ruined by health issues, as he skated in only 11 games. His experience and shot-blocking ability are valuable assets for the Maple Leafs. However, Tanev's limited offensive skill set means he's not a great option for fantasy managers.
