Eriksson Ek (rest) will not play in Saturday's road clash against the Predators, per Michael Russo of The Athletic.

With the Wild already having punched their ticket to the playoffs, Eriksson Ek will rest Saturday. The 29-year-old center has been hot as of late offensively with seven points over his last six games. Overall, he has 19 goals, 32 assists, 194 shots on net, 106 hits and 34 blocked shots through 70 games this season. He'll likely return to action for Minnesota's next tune-up game Monday against the Blues.
