Minnesota Wild forward Tyson Jost will serve as a healthy scratch Thursday versus the Ottawa Senators. (Source: Sarah McLellan on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact: Jost struggled to find his footing at the NHL level in parts of six seasons with the Colorado Avalanche, and apparently, a change of scenery has not helped. The 10th pick of the 2-16 draft has just one assist and four shots on goal across six games this season despite a solid 14:21 of average ice time. Recently demoted to fourth-line duties, it appears he'll need to find his game in a hurry to move up the pecking order.


Jordan Greenway found the back of the net twice, contributing to a 4-1 victory over the Colorado Avalanche. His stat line included two goals, plus-2 rating, two PIMs, two shots, five hits and one block.

Fantasy Impact: It only took :58 seconds for Greenway to get on the score sheet. He was making his way around the net and let a wrister go that snuck through Pavel Francouz on the short side. His second goal was a dump out that found it's way into the empty net. That brings him to ten goals and and 27 points for the Wild this year.

Cam Talbot backstopped his squad to a 6-3 victory over the Vancouver Canucks on Thursday. He saved 21 of the 24 shots he faced for an .875 save percentage.
