Minnesota's Ryan Hartman has been offered an in-person hearing with the NHL Department of Player Safety after driving the head of Ottawa's Tim Stützle into the ice.

Ben Jones and Travis Dermott are the current extra players on the roster. With Hartman being part of the 23-player roster, the Wild will likely have to place Dermott on waivers to create a roster spot for Johansson once he’s ready to return. This, of course, is assuming nobody else is hurt before then.
