Devan Dubnyk will start Thursday against the Avalanche.

Dubnyk will receive the start in Thursday's season opener against the Avalanche, Michael Russo of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

Analysis:

The Wild are currently rostering three goaltenders, but Dubnyk remains the clear starter for the club. Darcy Kuemper is expected to back him up in each of the first two contests, but it's unclear what the plans are beyond that. However, Dubnyk should receive a large portion of starts for the Wild this season.
