The Florida Panthers vs. Minnesota Wild game took a somber turn in the third period with unfortunate news for Wild fans. The team had to announce that their cherished goalie, Marc-Andre Fleury, wouldn't be returning to the action.

Fleury left the game after 30 minutes, with the team revealing it was due to an upper-body injury.
Adding to the setbacks, the Wild also confirmed that Connor Dewar, dealing with a lower-body issue, would not be making a return tonight.
The game had its fair share of chaos earlier when, behind Fleury's net, a collision occurred that might be linked to his injury.
In the initial frame, things got heated as Will Lockwood knocked Fleury to the ice while he was playing the puck. Teammates rushed to Lockwood's defense, resulting in a bit of a scuffle behind the Wild's net. Despite the physical exchange, Fleury toughed it out and stayed in the game, at least until this later setback.
