Marcus Johansson Misses Out On Sunday
4 years agoMinnesota Wild forward Marcus Johansson (undisclosed) won't be in the lineup for Sunday's clash with the Avalanche. The Swedish veteran logged only 9:15 in the first meeting between the two teams on Saturday, before joining fellow Wild forwards Mats Zuccarello (upper body), Marcus Foligno (COVID protocol), and Kevin Fiala (suspension) on the sidelines. Defenseman Matt Dumba (lower body) remains out as well with no timetable for his return. Johansson got injured at a very bad time, as he had just produced his best performance in a Wild uniform in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Kings with one goal and one assist, and had a great opportunity to start building some momentum with the team very thin upfront.
