The Minnesota Wild will be without Zach Parise for the foreseeable future, as the veteran forward suffered a fractured sternum in Game 3 against the Winnipeg Jets and is officially week to week, the team announced.
Parise was injured late in the third period and will be replaced by Tyler Ennis in Minnesota's lineup, per Michael Russo of The Athletic.
The 33-year-old was limited to just 42 games in the regular season after undergoing back surgery in October, and managed 15 goals and nine assists when healthy.
Through three games in the postseason, Parise had recorded three goals and his absence will surely be felt going forward, particularly as the Wild look to erase a 2-1 series deficit Tuesday night in Game 4.
