Wild's Brock Faber: One of each Wednesday
Brock Faber scored a goal on four shots and added an assist in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime win over the Blackhawks.Faber got the Minnesota Wild on the board late in the second period and helped out on Matt Boldy's game-tying tally midway through the third. With three goals and three helpers during a four-game point streak, Faber is again playing well in a top-four role. The 23-year-old blueliner has six goals, 15 points, 44 blocked shots, 56 shots on net and a plus-1 rating through 24 appearances. Faber is looking capable of bouncing back from his 29-point effort in 78 regular-season outings last year, and he should push for a 40-50 point campaign in 2025-26, given his current pace.

Wild's Brock Faber: Trio of assists Sunday
Brock Faber notched three assists, five shots on goal and three blocked shots in Sunday's 6-5 overtime loss to the Sharks.Two of his three helpers came on the power play. It was a much-needed performance for Faber, who had been held off the scoresheet over the first nine games of the season. Faber's offense may not rebound from last year's middling 29-point output from 78 regular-season contests, as Zeev Buium is maintaining a spot on the highly productive first power-play unit, leaving Faber to man the point on the second unit. Faber has supplied 23 shots on net, 18 blocked shots and a minus-4 rating, though his defensive numbers should improve if the Minnesota Wild can become more threatening at 5-on-5 rather than depending on the power play for their offense.
