Minnesota Wild captain Mikko Koivu appears to be okay following a scary incident against the Columbus Blue Jackets on Tuesday.
The 32-year-old was taken to hospital after crashing into the boards during the Wild's 4-2 victory. However, after being released and taking the ice with the club at Thursday's morning skate, Koivu said he's feeling good, and that he'll be in the lineup against the Philadelphia Flyers.
Coyle on Koivu: "We need him in our lineup. It's good to see him back." #mnwild
