Minnesota Wild recall forwards Zack Phillips, Justin Fontaine, Brett Bulmer and Chad Rau, defenseman Kyle Medvec and goalie Jeff Deslauriers from AHL Houston.
With Houston out of the AHL playoffs, the Wild will recall all six players as a means to showing some of the younger players what the playoffs are like. For players like Deslauriers, it's a bit of a reward after toiling in the minors for the season. None of the six players will play this postseason.
