Greenway has missed the last two games with an upper-body injury that he suffered vs. the Oilers last Tuesday but will play tonight in Dallas. Greenway, who has five assists in nine games this year, will return on the fourth-line with Victor Rask and Ryan Donato.
Greenway travelled to Nashville for Thursday's game but woke up "not feeling well" which has led to speculation that he could be dealing with a concussion. Victor Rask will draw into the lineup for Greenway, who will have some time to recover before Minnesota's next game, which doesn't come until Sunday.
Greenway was forced to leave Tuesday's win over the Oilers with an upper-body injury and did not return. It was a tough break for the young power forward, who had two assists in just 4:54 TOI before departing for the dressing room. Greenway has now collected five assists in his last five games.
Greenway has just one assist in nine games with the Wild this season and just two assists in his first 15 career games. He heads to Iowa to work on his game and also suggests that Joel Eriksson Ek will be back this weekend.
Greenway, 21, was a second round pick (No.50 overall) in 2015 and is set to join the Wild after finishing up his junior year at Boston University. Greenway is an absolute monster, standing in at 6-foot-5, 230 lbs. and is coming off of a year in which he scored 13 goals with 22 assists (35 points) in 36 games. He could jump right into the Minnesota lineup and could be an important addition for them in the postseason.
