Status report
Brazeau, acquired in a trade with the Boston Bruins on Thursday, is expected to arrive in Vancouver on Friday afternoon and could make his Wild debut, coach John Hynes said, depending on how he feels after a long travel day; if Brazeau does not play, Gaunce, a forward, would play after being scratched for a 4-3 win at the Seattle Kraken on Tuesday. … Hughes, a defenseman, continues to skate and get treatment but will miss a second straight game after being injured in a 6-3 loss at the Kraken on Saturday. … Mancini will play his second game with the Canucks since being acquired from the New York Rangers as part of the J.T. Miller trade Jan. 31, taking the place of defenseman Carson Soucy, who was traded to the Rangers on Thursday.
