Reinforcements are on the way.

Losers of three straight and 11 of 14 games in the month of March, the Minnesota Wild recalled forward Joel Eriksson Ek from Sweden, the club announced Tuesday evening.

Eriksson Ek, who was drafted 20th overall in 2015, spent the majority of the season playing for Swedish Elite League club Farjestad after a nine-game stint with the Wild to kick off 2016-17.

By recalling the forward, the Wild will burn the first year of his entry-level deal once he appears in his 10th game.

Eriksson Ek recorded two goals and three assists during his time with the Wild, and went on to contribute eight goals and eight assists in 26 games in Sweden, followed by three goals and three assists in seven playoff games. He was also one of the better players at the 2017 World Junior Championship.

Despite their recent swoon, the Wild will be in the playoffs, likely with a little spark in their back pocket.
