Yurov scored a goal on two shots in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Rangers.
Yurov has two goals over his last three games and is up to 10 tallies this season. The 22-year-old rookie is playing in a middle-six role currently, so he won't be a big producer on offense as long as the Wild's forward group stays mostly healthy. Yurov has a total of 25 points with 68 shots on net, 43 hits, 35 blocked shots, 22 PIM and a minus-1 rating over 60 outings.

Rotowire
Yurov scored twice in Friday's 5-2 win over the Ducks.
Yurov had been limited to one assist over his prior six games. The 22-year-old got back in the goal column with a deflection at 8:10 of the second period, and he tallied again in the third to put the Wild up 4-1. Yurov is up to six goals, 15 points, 40 shots on net, 26 blocked shots, 23 hits and a minus-1 rating over 35 appearances. He's moved around the lineup a bit, but he should be able to challenge for top-six minutes at even strength.

Rotowire
Yurov scored a goal, logged two assists, added two PIM and went plus-3 in Tuesday's 5-0 win over the Capitals.
Yurov set up two goals for Vladimir Tarasenko before the veteran returned the favor once on the rookie's third-period tally. This was Yurov's first career three-point effort, and he snapped an eight-game goal drought. For the season, the 21-year-old has four goals, 11 points, 32 shots on net, 19 blocked shots, 17 hits and a minus-1 rating over 27 appearances. Yurov has a little more room to grow as a top-six forward after the Wild sent Marco Rossi to the Canucks in the Quinn Hughes trade.

Wild's Danila Yurov: Records power-play assist
Rotowire
Yurov notched a power-play assist and four shots on goal in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Senators.
Yurov's helper was his first point in four outings since he missed two games due to an undisclosed injury. The 21-year-old has been listed on the top line at even strength lately, and he may hold onto that on-paper role now that Marco Rossi is a Canuck following Friday's blockbuster Quinn Hughes trade. Yurov is up to eight points in 25 appearances, his helper Saturday being his first power-play contribution. He's added 31 shots on net, 17 hits, 17 blocked shots and a minus-4 rating. Yurov isn't quite a household name for fantasy yet, but he has plenty of time to develop into one.

Wild's Danila Yurov: First career goal a game-winner
Rotowire
Yurov scored the game-winning goal in Monday's 3-1 victory over the Rangers.
The 21-year-old jammed home the rebound on Marcus Johansson's wraparound attempt midway through the third period to break a 1-1 tie. It was Yurov's first career NHL point in his fifth game, and while the 2022 first-round pick is still stuck in a bottom-six role at even strength, he did skate on the second power-play unit Monday as he begins to earn the trust of coach John Hynes.
