From: Sarah McLellan – Update from #mnwild GM Bill Guerin on captain Jared Spurgeon: Spurgeon’s lower-body injury is related to his season-ending surgeries from last season. Spurgeon won’t accompany the team at the start of their upcoming road trip and this is part of the healing process, Guerin said.

From: Russo – Bill Guerin says Jared Spurgeon won’t be on at least the start of the next road trip. The #mnwild GM says this is part of the “healing process” of last year’s back and hip surgeries and he needs rest and maintenance.

I think this is good news. Doesn’t explain why everyone seemed so worried when he first went on the injury report though.
One more related comment from **Russo**:
Guerin also said Daemon Hunt will be recalled for at least start of trip
Sucks for everyone mainly for him and his health. That being said, some decisions should be confronted like making 97 the new C. Give him that ownership. A good Captain should recognize he cannot lead from the press box for 2 seasons. We’ll learn a lot about his leadership if it’s another long season with a C on the training table.
