Zach Parise won't play Thursday, and there's no telling when he'll be back in the Minnesota Wild's lineup.
Zach Parise was injured Tuesday against the Islanders, Torchetti said. Out at least two games, maybe more. "We'll see," Torchetti said.

The left-winger is dealing with an upper-body injury. He has 18 goals and 18 assists in 51 games, and his absence could be felt. The Wild are four points back of the Colorado Avalanche for the second wild-card spot in the Western Conference.
Parise has a goal and seven assists in 11 games in February.
Torch on #mnwild being 4 pts out & now w/o Parise/Zucker:"You’ve got to work with what you’ve got and don’t worry about what you don’t have"

Jordan Schroeder will hop on the top line in Parise's absence.
