Minnesota Wild forward Guillaume Latendresse is out indefinitely with a concussion. The oft-injured star hasn't been able to stay healthy in his career with the Wild. This latest injury forces coach Mike Yeo to shuffle his top line.

The Wild placed defenseman Mike Lundin on injured reserve with a lower body injury and recalled Chad Rau from the Houston Aeros on Sunday. Rau made an immediate impact with the Wild, scoring a second period goal against Boston.

The Minnesota Wild extended qualifying offers to eight players Monday, including Chay Genoway, David McIntyre, Nick Palmieri, Jarod Palmer, Justin Falk and Carson McMillan. Meanwhile, the team didn't extend an offer to Guillaume Latendresse, although they are trying to sign him.

Defenseman Marco Scandella suffered a concussion Saturday night against Los Angeles, and was scratched from the Wild lineup against Anaheim tonight. It was the second straight game a key Minnesota player sustained a concussion. Guillaume Latendresse suffered one against San Jose on Thursday.

Wild winger Guillaume Latendresse says he will be a free agent as of Sunday. He tells the Star Tribune he hopes to sign with a team that will allow him to be closer to his 4-year-old son, who lives in Montreal. Latendresse played just 16 games in an injury-filled season last year.

The Minnesota Wild’s season came to an end on Saturday but four of its defensemen were reassigned to the Houston Aeros of the AHL. Marco Scandella, Nate Prosser, Chey Genoway and Kris Fredheim are eligible to play the rest of the season, and playoffs if the Aeros reach the postseason.

The Wild called up four players from the Houston Aeros today. Forwards Matt Kassian, Jed Ortmeyer, Chad Rau and defenseman Nate Prosser will join the team for Saturday's game against Dallas. Head coach Mike Yeo says, "We're not just going to stand around and hope things get better."

After missing 32 of the last 34 games with a concussion, Guillaume Latendresse has returned to practice with the Wild. The Star Tribune reports Latendresse skated with Mikko Koivu today, who is out with a shoulder injury. The Wild start the second half of the NHL season tomorrow night, hosting Nashville.
