      Rakell was activated off injured reserve and will play against the Wild on Monday.

      Rakell has missed 12 straight games due to an upper-body injury but will return to the lineup for the first time since November 19th. Before his injury, Rakell was pacing for the worst season of his career, with only four points (0G / 4A) in 17 games. His zero goals on 44 shots rank worst among all forwards with over 30 shots this season.
