Marcus Johansson Returns From 16-Game Absence
4 years agoMinnesota Wild forward Marcus Johansson, who has missed over a month of action with an upper-body injury, will finally return to the lineup on Monday against Anaheim. He last played on Feb.18 in a 3-1 win over the Ducks, missing 16 games. Johansson hasn't done much this season with three points in 11 games, but he has averaged a solid 0.56 points per game in his career. The Swedish veteran skated with Joel Eriksson-Ek and Jordan Greenway in Sunday's practice, but head coach Dean Evason hasn't committed to keeping the line together for Monday's outing. The duo has combined for 36 points this season, so Johansson instantly becomes an attractive fantasy piece if he sticks with them.
