The NHL announced the move in the wake of the death of Daunte Wright. Gov. Tim Walz issued a curfew of 7 p.m. on Monday that resulted in the Wild-St. Louis game at the Xcel Energy Center to be postponed to May 12.
Wednesday's matinee will be televised on Bally Sports Plus. The game was originally set for 8 p.m.
If Wednesday ticket holders can't attend the game, their accounts will be credited or they will get a refund, the team said.
Wild coach Dean Evason said winger Kevin Fiala (upper body injury) would be good to go for the game.
The Wild prevailed 5-4 on Tuesday night, moving back into first place in the NHL with a hard-fought victory in their first trip to Utah. Matt Boldy scored the winner in the shootout.
