This could hurt the Wild with only six defensemen now.

Wild should be Fine,
Johnnson-Burns
Skoula-Carney
Nummelin- Shawn Belle or somebody if they call someone up
or the Wild can just Double Shift 2 D Pairing and have Nummelin switch in.

They're not going to call anybody up from Houston.

I doubt they will pair Carney and Hill. They wouldn't pair a combo that adds up to 100 in age
Also, saying that Nick Schultz is not a major loss is ridiculous. If you look at Carney, Hill, Nummelin they are all very suspect defenseman. Schultz is our best defensive d-man. Look for Burns to play tons of ice, followed by Johnsson and Skoula. The loss of Schultz makes Forsberg, Sakic, Stastny, Hejduk etc. all the more dangerous. Get Well soon Nick and Go Wild!

Losing Schultz hurts but the rest of the D will step up.
