Wild's Jesper Wallstedt: Tastes defeat in first start
Wallstedt gave up three goals on 27 shots in Sunday's 3-2 loss to the Golden Knights.
Victor Olofsson tallied twice and Shea Theodore had the other goal to send Wallstedt to the loss in his NHL season debut. Wallstedt was called up after Saturday's game versus the Flyers because Filip Gustavsson (lower body) is dealing with an injury. Wallstedt is considered a top goalie prospect, but he has struggled at the AHL level this year, so he likely still needs more development time, which he should get once Gustavsson is back to 100 percent.

Wild's Jesper Wallstedt: Starting against Vegas
Wallstedt will patrol the home crease versus the Golden Knights on Sunday, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.
Wallstedt has a 5-6-1 record with a 3.77 GAA and an .874 save percentage in 12 AHL appearances this season. The 22-year-old Wallstedt will get the second half of Minnesota's back-to-back because Filip Gustavsson (undisclosed) is unavailable, and Marc-Andre Fleury played in Saturday's 4-1 win over Philadelphia. Vegas ranks fifth in the league with 3.47 goals per game in 2024-25 and lost 6-3 to Edmonton on Saturday.

Wild's Jesper Wallstedt: Receives emergency call-up
Wallstedt was called up from AHL Iowa on Saturday under emergency conditions.
Wallstedt's emergency recall indicates there may be some concern with one of Filip Gustavsson or Marc-Andre Fleury, but nothing has been reported. Jakub Lauko (lower body) was placed on injured reserve to clear a roster spot. Wallstedt has not played in the NHL in 2024-25 and has struggled to a 3.77 GAA and an .874 save percentage over 12 outings with Iowa this season.

Wild's Jesper Wallstedt: Returns to AHL
Wallstedt was reassigned to AHL Iowa on Wednesday.
Wallstedt was recalled Tuesday and returned to the minors after being a healthy scratch in Minnesota's 3-2 overtime win against Vancouver. His brief stint in the NHL might have just been for developmental purposes to give him a chance to work with the big club, especially because Iowa is off until Saturday anyway. The 22-year-old has a 4.34 GAA and an .860 save percentage in 10 outings with Iowa in 2024-25.

Wild's Jesper Wallstedt: Called up from minors
Wallstedt was promoted from AHL Iowa on Tuesday.
Wallstedt hasn't been exactly dominating in the minors, posting a 3-6-1 record and 4.34 GAA in 10 outings for the club. Iowa is off until Saturday's clash with AHL Milwaukee, so the netminder may just be up with the big club to get the opportunity to work with the team's goalie coach and get some reps with the Wilds as a way to boost his confidence. Still, fantasy players probably should monitor the status of Filip Gustavsson and Marc-Andre Fleury ahead of puck drop against the Canucks on Tuesday.

Wild's Jesper Wallstedt: Sent back down
Wallstedt was reassigned to AHL Iowa on Sunday.

Wild's Jesper Wallstedt: Back in Minnesota
The Wild recalled Wallstedt from AHL Iowa on Friday.
Wallstedt was sent down Thursday as the Wild needed a seventh defenseman and didn't need to carry three goaltenders. Defenseman Daemon Hunt, who was recalled Thursday, was sent down to AHL Iowa in a corresponding move. Wallstedt is expected to play approximately 25-30 games this season, sharing the net with Filip Gustavsson and Marc-Andre Fleury. Wallstedt is considered the Wild's goalie of the future.

Wild's Jesper Wallstedt: Sent to AHL
The Wild reassigned Wallstedt to AHL Iowa on Thursday.
Minnesota had only six healthy defensemen since Declan Chisholm is out with an illness, so they demoted Wallstedt, who was set to be the Wild's third goaltender Thursday, and they promoted Daemon Hunt as their seventh defenseman. Wallstedt is expected to see plenty of action at the NHL level this season, as the Wild are likely to share the net between Wallstedt, Filip Gustavsson and Marc-Andre Fleury, unless one of the threesome gets hot. Wallstedt should make approximately 25-30 appearances this year, as he is the Wild's goaltender of the future.

Wild's Jesper Wallstedt: Lands contract extension
Wallstedt signed a two-year, $4.4 million contract extension with the Wild on Monday, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.
Wallstedt made his NHL debut last year, as he made three appearances for Minnesota and posted a 2-1-0 record, 3.02 GAA and .897 save percentage. He's one of the top goaltending prospects in professional hockey and could see increased work for the Wild this year, although he'll likely begin the season behind Filip Gustavsson and Marc-Andre Fleury. Wallstedt's deal will keep him under contract with the Wild through the 2026-27 season, as the agreement won't start until next season.

Wild's Jesper Wallstedt: Facing Stars
Wallstedt will patrol the home crease in Sunday's preseason contest versus Dallas, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.
During his last outing, Wallstedt stopped 38 shots in a 5-2 exhibition win over Winnipeg on Sept. 21. He posted a 2-1-0 record with a 3.01 GAA and an .897 save percentage in three regular-season appearances for Minnesota in 2023-24.

Wild's Jesper Wallstedt: Getting start Saturday
Wallstedt is set to be between the pipes on the road against the Jets on Saturday, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.
Wallstedt taking the first game of the preseason by no means guarantees he will earn a roster spot coming out of training camp, but it certainly is something worth monitoring. The 21-year-old netminder has just three games of NHL experience, having gone 2-1-0 with a 3.02 GAA and one shutout last season. Veteran Marc-Andre Fleury is slated to serve in the backup role Saturday, giving Filip Gustavsson the night off.

Wild's Jesper Wallstedt: Sent back down
Wallstedt was reassigned to AHL Iowa on Tuesday.
Wallstedt won both of his games during this stint on the NHL roster, but those were against the Blackhawks and the Sharks. Marc-Andre Fleury will start Thursday's season finale versus the Kraken, so there's no need to keep Wallstedt in the NHL to close out the campaign.

Wild's Jesper Wallstedt: Solid in second win
Wallstedt allowed two goals on 29 shots in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Sharks.
Wallstedt earned his second win in three NHL outings this season. He's received favorable assignments in those two games after debuting against the Stars in January and allowing seven goals in a loss. Wallstedt is the Wild's presumptive goalie of the future, and he's been given a taste of the NHL this season. With Marc-Andre Fleury's future with the Wild beyond the end of the campaign in question, Wallstedt could get a chance to win a roster spot in training camp in the fall.

Wild's Jesper Wallstedt: Starting in San Jose
Wallstedt will patrol the road crease Saturday against the Sharks, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.
Wallstedt was excellent in his second NHL appearance Sunday versus the Blackhawks, turning aside all 24 shots he faced en route to his first NHL win and shutout. He'll try to secure a second straight victory in a favorable matchup with a San Jose team that's scored just 2.22 goals per game this season.

Wild's Jesper Wallstedt: Earns first NHL win
Wallstedt recorded a shutout in Sunday's 4-0 win over the Blackhawks on Sunday, stopping all 24 shots for his first NHL victory.
Wallstedt is getting a look at the NHL level with the Wild nearly eliminated from playoff contention. The club is currently carrying three netminders on the roster, so the 21-year-old Wallstedt is unlikely to get a significant workload down the stretch. Still, Wallstedt could challenge Filip Gustavsson as the presumptive goalie of the future for the Wild.

Wallstedt will get his second start of the season with Minnesota after being recalled from AHL Iowa on Saturday. During his NHL debut against Dallas on Jan. 10, he gave up seven goals on 34 shots in a 7-2 loss. The 21-year-old netminder has a 21-19-3 record with a 2.76 GAA and a .908 save percentage in 43 AHL games this campaign. Chicago sits 31st in the league with 2.21 goals per contest in 2023-24.

Wild's Jesper Wallstedt: Recalled Saturday
Wallstedt was summoned from AHL Iowa on Saturday.
Wallstedt has a 2.76 GAA and a .908 save percentage in 43 AHL contests this season. The Wild will carry three goaltenders down the stretch because Marc-Andre Fleury and Filip Gustavsson are both believed to be healthy. The 21-year-old Wallstedt is projected to play between the pipes at some point during the Wild's upcoming five-game road trip, which begins Sunday in Chicago, according to Michael Russo of The Athletic.

Wild's Jesper Wallstedt: Sent back to AHL
Wallstedt was reassigned to AHL Iowa on Sunday.
With the Wild off through the All-Star break, Wallstedt will head back to the minors. The 21-year-old netminder struggled in his one NHL start this season, allowing seven goals on 34 shots in a loss to Dallas on Jan. 10. With Marc-Andre Fleury (upper body) likely to return following the break, Wallstedt will likely remain in Iowa as injury insurance going forward.

Wild's Jesper Wallstedt: Recalled by Minnesota
Wallstedt was summoned from AHL Iowa on Saturday, per Michael Russo of The Athletic.
Marc-Andre Fleury suffered an upper-body injury versus Florida on Friday, so Wallstedt could back up Filip Gustavsson on Sunday against Carolina. Wallstedt made his NHL debut Jan. 10, and it was a tough one, as he gave up seven goals on 34 shots in a loss to the Stars. He is a highly-regarded prospect and is worth claiming in dynasty leagues.
