Minnesota place right wing Devin Setoguchi on injured reserve
|ST. PAUL, Minn. — The Minnesota Wild have placed right wing Devin Setoguchi on injured reserve and recalled left wing Jeff Taffe from their minor league affiliate. The move was made before Thursday’s game at Los Angeles. Setoguchi had tweaked his knee in practice earlier in the day and compounded when Brent Burns fell on him in the first period. Ironically, Burns and Setoguchi were traded for each other. Setoguchi left in the first period of Tuesday’s game at San Jose with what the NHL-leading Wild called a lower-body injury. He’s tied for the team lead with eight goals.
