Parise suffered the injury after being hit by James Neal while he was engaged with Ryan Ellis along the side boards. Parise got up slowly and it has already been announced that he will not play on Saturday. The nature or severity of the injury has yet to be announced, but the Wild can’t afford to lose Parise for an extended period of time—he currently leads the team in goals with seven.

Parise is reportedly dealing with a “nagging injury” but this looks like resting your star players for the playoff-bound Wild. Parise has 32 goals and 29 assists (61 points) in 73 games this season.
After missing two games to be with his ailing father, who passed away on Thursday, Parise will be back in the lineup this afternoon vs. the Predators. He will skate on the second line with Erik Haula and Thomas Vanek.
Parise missed Tuesday’s game to be with his ailing father and then missed Thursday’s game after he passed away from lung cancer. Parise said he plans to be in the lineup and said that his dad would have been mad that he missed two games. Parise, who has 30 points (14G / 16A) in 32 games will be a huge boost to the Wild lineup.
Parise was on the ice before practice taking shots, but is expected to be a full participant this afternoon. Parise missed the last two games because of the death of his father; his return to practice today suggests that he should be available for Saturday’s game vs. the Predators.
Parise, who missed Tuesday’s game to be with his ailing father, lost his father to lung cancer this morning. Parise is on non-roster status, so if he wanted to play, someone would need to be sent down in order to make room for him.
Parise missed Tuesday's game to be with his ailing father, who is battling lung cancer. There is no telling how long Parise will be away from the team, but at this point, hockey is the least of his concerns. Monitor his status on Thursday in advance of their meeting with Chicago.

Parise now has 12 points in 12 games this season.
Parise has 9 points in 10 games
Parise has not quite progressed how the Wild thought he would and he will likely sit for the fourth straight game. It is a shame, because a contest vs. the Sabres would have been the perfect way to ease him back into the lineup. Monitor his status in the morning skate.
Parise will miss his third straight game with a concussion, which means he won’t get to face his former team tonight in New Jersey. He skated again this morning which is obviously a good sign. Monitor his status leading up to Thursday’s game vs. the Sabres.
The Wild return home vs. the Sabres on Thursday, so traveling with the team will allow Parise to practice on Tuesday and could potentially be ready to play on Thursday back in Minnesota.
Parise has missed the last two games with a concussion he suffered last Tuesday vs. the Penguins. It is hard to pinpoint a return when you are dealing with concussions, but it is a good sign that he is back on the ice this morning. The Wild have four games this week and there is a chance he could be back for the back-to-back this weekend.

A three-game road trip starts tomorrow in Ottawa and it will start without Parise. He suffered an upper-body injury last night vs. the Penguins and it sounds like he will miss at least the next three games. He could always join the team on the trip but for now he is day-to-day. With Parise out, Thomas Vanek skated on the top-line.
Parise missed the entire third period of last night’s contest after suffering an undisclosed upper-body injury. Minnesota takes on the Senators on Thursday, so this does not bode well for Parise’s availability.
Parise was injured in the third period, but head coach Mike Yeo would not reveal the seriousness of the injury, nor would he indicate whether Parise would travel with the team to Ottawa for the start of their road trip. Expect an update to come this afternoon.
Parise missed the last 14 games with a fractured foot, but says that he will give it a go tonight. Parise will skate on a line with Charlie Coyle and Nino Niederreiter and also slide back onto the top power-play unit. Parise has 27 points (15G / 12A) in 37 games this season. He should be activated in all formats.
