Brock Faber spotted at Wild game as teammate suffers injury
Summary

Brock Faber was seen in the Minnesota Wild press box during a game against the Vegas Golden Knights on October 12, 2026. His presence came after teammate Nico Sturm exited the game following a similar injury to the one Faber sustained in preseason. The Wild had already placed Marcus Foligno on injured reserve that day, increasing concerns about their injury woes. The Wild made a strong start in the game, but the injury to Sturm was a setback, as he was ruled out shortly after suffering a hit to the head. The status of Faber's recovery remains uncertain as he has yet to play this season after fracturing his skull in late September.
