As the NHL franchise announced today, Kevin Fiala's immigration paperwork (valid work visa) has been completed and he is expected to arrive in Minnesota tonight. The forward might thus be on the ice with the team on Saturday.

Fiala signed a new two-year deal with the Minnesota Wild a bit more than a week ago. Acquired by the Wild from the Nashville Predators in February, he finished last season with 13 goals and 26 assists in a total of 83 games.
