KEY GAME INFORMATION
COLUMBUS: LAST SEASON: 45-30-7, 97 points. First wildcard in Eastern Division.
LOST to Washington Capitals in first round of playoffs.
COACH: John Tortorella (fourth season, 18th NHL season.)
ADDED: F Anthony Duclair, F Riley Nash.
LOST: F Matt Calvert, F Thomas Vanek, D Ian Cole, D Jack Johnson.
PLAYER TO WATCH: Artemi Panarin. The Russian forward, acquired in a trade with Chicago in the summer of 2017, had a career year with the Blue Jackets, leading the team with 27 goals and 55 assists for 82 points. The Blue Jackets tried to lock him with a multiyear contract, but he decided to play out the final year of his deal, signaling that he doesn't really want to be in Columbus for the long haul. The Blue Jackets' window for getting to the next level stays open, providing the "Bread Man" has another good year before his probable departure.
OUTLOOK: Tortorella was signed to a two-year contract extension, but the organization was unable to lock up Panarin and star goaltender Sergei Bobrovsky with both entering the last year of their contracts. If the team can avoid that distraction and players such as Cam Atkinson, Nick Foligno, Seth Jones, Zach Werenski and Pierre-Luc Dubois play to their potential, the Blue Jackets should be back in the NHL playoffs, where they have yet to make it out of the first round in four tries. Entering their 18th season of play, the Blue Jackets are still the only team in the NHL to have never won a playoff series.
MINNESOTA: LAST SEASON: 45-26-11, 101 points. Third in Central Division.
LOST to Winnipeg Jets in Western Conference quarterfinals.
COACH: Bruce Boudreau (third season, 12th NHL season).
ADDED: RW J.T. Brown, C Eric Fehr, C Matt Hendricks, RW Matt Read, D Greg Pateryn, D Matt Bartkowski.
LOST: C Matt Cullen, LW Tyler Ennis, RW Daniel Winnik.
PLAYER TO WATCH: LW Zach Parise. After missing the first 39 games because of a lower back problem that required surgery, Parise's delayed start was predictably slow. He scored 12 goals in his last 18 games of the regular season, though, and scored in each of the first three playoff games until being knocked out of action again by a broken sternum. Parise, who's entering his 14th NHL season at age 34, isn't built to be the team's premier scorer but needs to replicate that productivity down the stretch to help keep the offense balanced.
OUTLOOK: New GM Paul Fenton made only minor moves this summer for fresh faces on the fourth line and more depth on defense, so the Wild will rely on the same core that has been bounced out of the playoffs in the first round three straight times and won only two series over the last six years. Just reaching the postseason again in the rugged Western Conference would be an accomplishment in itself, and Boudreau has as strong of an 82-game track record as any bench boss in the league. Parise and defenseman Ryan Suter, who's coming off a serious ankle injury that kept him out of the playoffs, must stay healthy throughout the seventh year of their identical $98 million megadeals. Wings Charlie Coyle and Nino Niederreiter also have to bounce back from down seasons.
PREVIEW
Rask set to debut for Wild against Blue Jackets

The Minnesota Wild, smack dab in the heart of the battles for the third place in the Central Division standings and a wild card spot, are hardly in the selloff territory.

Yet, with expectations to be more than just a middling team, the desire for a shakeup is understandable. The newest acquisition, forward Victor Rask, is expected to make his Wild debut when the club plays host to the Columbus Blue Jackets on Saturday night.

"He's a kid that I've watched since his draft year," general manager Paul Fenton said.

"He could be a (number) two or a three centerman; he has the capability of playing the wing as well. My experience tells me, you can't have enough centers. It's something that we're finding out in the league more and more."

The Wild likely will have Rask -- who was acquired from the Carolina Hurricanes in exchange for Nino Niederreiter -- in the middle on the third line, between Zach Parise and Pontus Aberg against Columbus. Aberg was the return from the Anaheim Ducks for minor leaguer Justin Kloos.

Rask, 25, comes to the Wild with just one goal and six points in 26 games this season for the Hurricanes. He posted career highs of 21 goals and 48 points in the 2015-16 campaign.

Minnesota (23-21-3) is coming off a 3-0 loss to the Ducks on Thursday, which has the club on a 1-3-0 slide. The players are sensing the urgency.

"You never want to be in that position where you're putting yourself in a spot where they have to make that decision, and all of a sudden you have to start getting rid of players," Parise said. "It's a tough spot to be in, and I just hope that we can rebound and climb ourselves back in."

To make any form of a climb, though, the Wild will need to find the consistency that has been sorely lacking since mid-November.

"We've seen fluctuations in the way that we play," Fenton said.

"We had the stretch in the beginning where we were lights out, and I thought, 'Wow this team is a lot better than we anticipated.' And then we hit a couple of bumps in the road and had a roller coaster ride a little bit.

"We're looking for consistency. For me, when you make changes like this, it shows players that nothing is forever. It gives them an alert that if they want to be here, they're going to have to play and play the way that we want them to play and be successful."

The Blue Jackets (28-16-3) arrive in Minnesota after a 4-1 home loss to the Montreal Canadiens on Friday night, which snapped a four-game winning streak as they dropped from the top spot in the Metropolitan Division.

Despite the loss, the Blue Jackets were looking forward, instead of lamenting a defeat.

"We did some good things. It was a tight game. We'll take this into Minnesota tomorrow," said defenseman Seth Jones.

Columbus did have some good news with veteran forward Brandon Dubinsky back in the lineup after missing four games due to a hamstring injury.

It is likely goalie Sergei Bobrovsky will mind the net for just the second time since being disciplined after he showered and got dressed in his suit after being pulled from the net, instead of returning to the bench to serve as the backup.

"Every season brings some challenges," said Bobrovsky, who wouldn't divulge if he was to the Wild. "There will be tough times, there will be fun times. It's a long season. It's a marathon and there (are) ups and downs. Lots of them. It's important how you handle them."
