Denis Wierzbicki / USA TODAY Sports
The Minnesota Wild will have to maintain their Central Division lead without Jonas Brodin for the next little while.
The 23-year-old rearguard will miss at least a month with a broken finger, Wild general manager Chuck Fletcher announced Wednesday.
Brodin was injured in Wednesday's loss to the New Jersey Devils.
In 43 games this season, Brodin has chipped in three goals and 13 assists, averaging over 20 minutes per night.
