ANAHEIM, CALIF. – The ice inside Honda Center on Friday was crowded with players, one of the most well-attended Wild practices of the season.
But it s unclear if the team will get a similar turnout Saturday when the Wild finishes off a two-game series against the Ducks.
After welcoming back goalie Cam Talbot, defensemen Jonas Brodin, Carson Soucy and Brad Hunt and center Victor Rask from the NHL s COVID protocols, the team is going to wait until Saturday morning to determine its lineup.
Talbot won t be ready to suit up, but coach Dean Evason wanted to check in with the others on game day before deciding.

LOS ANGELES – The Wild is still dealing with the fallout from a COVID-19 outbreak, with key regulars missing from the team s return to action Tuesday nearly two weeks after the NHL suspended the Wild s season at the beginning of the spread.
But reinforcements are on the way.
Defenseman Ian Cole and forwards Nick Bonino and Nico Sturm accompanied the team to California on Monday and although they didn t play against the Kings at Staples Center, they are expected to be back Thursday when the team s road trip continues in Anaheim.
