Rossi provided two assists to go along with four shots and two hits in Saturday's 5-4 shootout loss to the Kraken.
Rossi didn't record a point in the season-opening win over the Blue Jackets on Thursday, but he made his presence felt on the ice Saturday by helping on goals scored by Mats Zuccarello and Kirill Kaprizov. Rossi notched 19 assists and 40 points as a rookie in 2023-24, and he figures to play a pivotal role for the Wild as part of their first line and their second power-play unit.
