Analysis:

It doesn't look as though a long-term absence is in the picture for Carter, but since he was placed on IR over the weekend with a retroactive date of Dec. 11, he'll still have to miss the Wild's next two games. He could be ready to go as soon as he's eligible for activation Saturday against Nashville.
