Darcy Kuemper - Struggles vs. Wild Kuemper allowed five goals on 30 shots in Tuesday's 5-3 loss to Minnesota.

The 33-year-old Kuemper is now 11-11-2 on the season with an .892 save percentage and 3.21 GAA as he continues to cede playing time to Charlie Lindgren. Lindgren will get the starting nod Wednesday in Colorado, meaning Kuemper's next start could come as soon as Saturday on the road versus the Stars.
