Marcus Johansson Added To Injured Reserve
1 month agoMinnesota Wild left wing Marcus Johansson (upper body) was placed on Injured Reserve Thursday. He took an elbow to the face from Edmonton forward Connor McDavid in Wednesday's 5-3 loss, with Wild head coach John Hynes saying after the game that Johansson would likely be out for a while. It is suspected that the Swedish forward is dealing with a concussion. Johansson has picked up 16 points (five goals, 11 assists) in 44 games this season. His injury means the Wild are now without two of their top left-wingers and three of their top-four defensemen. Marcus Foligno will likely move into the top six on Saturday against Nashville if Kirill Kaprizov (lower body) is not ready to return.
