The Dallas Stars and Minnesota Wild are getting ready to start a first-round playoff series that has been expected for months

Well rested for playoffs Foligno (rest) was in attendance for Thursday's practice session, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.

Impact After sitting out the Wild's last two games, Foligno was back on the ice ahead of Game 1 versus the Stars. The veteran winger failed to reach the 20-point mark for the first time since 2018-19, in part due to the fact that he saw action in just 56 games this year. Without a role on the power play, combined with slotting into a spot in the bottom six, Foligno is unlikely to offer significant value in most postseason pools.

Out again Tuesday Foligno (rest) won't play Tuesday versus the Ducks, Dylan Loucks of The Hockey News reports.

Impact Foligno will miss a second straight game to close out the regular season. The 34-year-old winger will likely return for Game 1 of the playoffs versus the Stars. He should see bottom-six minutes, though he's not a lock to be in the lineup.

Sitting out Monday Foligno (rest) won't play against St. Louis on Monday, according to Michael Russo of The Athletic.

Impact Foligno will be out of the lineup for at least one game, but it's unclear if he will play against Anaheim on Tuesday in Minnesota's regular-season finale. He has collected eight goals, 13 points, 65 shots on net, 47 blocked shots and 179 hits through 56 outings this campaign.

Goal, fight in win Foligno scored a goal on two shots, added five PIM, logged two hits, blocked three shots and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Kraken.

Impact Foligno's tally tied the game at 2-2 in the second period. He also had a heavyweight fight with Jamie Oleksiak in the opening frame. The 34-year-old Foligno continues to play in a bottom-six role, which gives him little scoring potential. He's been held to 13 points, 62 shots on net, 170 hits, 46 blocked shots, 63 PIM and a minus-9 rating over 54 appearances this season.

Scores in return Foligno scored a goal on two shots and added two hits in Thursday's 3-2 win over the Panthers.

Impact Foligno missed 12 games due to a lower-body injury. With the Wild at full health up front, Foligno will likely fill a fourth-line role moving forward. The 34-year-old winger has seven goals, five assists, 57 shots on net, 153 hits, 58 PIM and 41 blocked shots over 49 appearances this season.

Impact Foligno has been on injured reserve since early March due to his lower-body injury, but he participated in Thursday's morning skate and has been cleared to return to game action. Across 48 appearances this season, he's recorded six goals, five assists, 151 hits, 58 PIM and 41 blocked shots while averaging 12:57 of ice time.

Still having injury evaluated Head coach John Hynes said Tuesday that Foligno (lower body) is week-to-week, according to Joe Smith of The Athletic.

Impact Hynes also noted that Foligno's injury is not season-ending, but the veteran winger is set to have his injury evaluated by another doctor Tuesday. Robby Fabbri, who was claimed off waivers by the Wild on Monday, will probably play regularly for the duration of Foligno's absence.

Designated for IR Foligno (lower body) was placed on injured reserve Monday, Dylan Loucks of The Hockey News reports.

Impact Even with a retroactive designation, Foligno will have to miss at least the next two games due to his lower-body injury, though the team hasn't offered a clear recovery timeline for the winger. Both Tyler Pitlick and Ben Jones should be in contention to see minutes with Foligno on the shelf.

Won't play Sunday Foligno (lower body) won't play Sunday against the Blues, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.

Impact Foligno played in and finished the Wild's last game, Friday against the Mammoth, but won't be able to suit up Sunday. The 34-year-old has just 11 points (six goals, five assists) in 48 games on the season, but he also has 151 hits and 41 blocked shots. The timeline for his return is currently unknown. The Wild are next in action on Tuesday against the Lightning.

MARCH 1 • ROTOWIRE

Good to play Thursday Foligno (illness) is expected to play against Colorado on Thursday, per Joe Smith of The Athletic.

Impact Foligno missed Minnesota's final two games before the Olympic break because of the illness. He has six goals, 11 points, 54 PIM and 145 hits across 46 appearances in 2025-26. Foligno's expected to serve on the fourth line Thursday alongside Nico Sturm and Vinnie Hinostroza.

Won't play Wednesday Foligno (illness) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Nashville, Joe Smith of The Athletic reports.

Impact Foligno missed Monday's game against the Canadiens due to an illness, and he'll be unavailable for a second consecutive matchup ahead of the Olympic break Wednesday. Tyler Pitlick will likely remain in the lineup against the Predators, while Foligno's next chance to return to action for the Wild will be Feb. 26 against the Avalanche.

Minnesota has one more game remaining -- Wednesday in Nashville -- before the Olympic break.
