Game-time call Monday Acciari (lower body) will be a game-time decision against the Wild on Monday.
Impact Acciari could get back into the lineup for the first time since Nov. 30 versus the Lightning, a stretch of seven games on the shelf due to his lower-body injury. The winger's primary value to the team comes from his ability to kill penalties, but he did still manage two goals on seven shots in his last six contests. If he does play, Acciari will likely move into a fourth-line role that would see Johnny Gruden dropped from the lineup.

Gathers helper in win Acciari logged an assist, four shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 10-2 win over the Sharks.
Impact Acciari helped out on Matt Nieto's second-period marker. The helper got Acciari on the scoresheet for the first time in 10 games this season. The 31-year-old center has added 12 shots on net, 19 hits, 12 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating while working exclusively on the fourth line. That limited role makes it unlikely he'll score enough to be an option for fantasy managers.
