Koivu (illness) missed Friday's practice, Chad Graff of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

Analysis:

Koivu was feeling ill toward the end of Thursday's win over the Flyers, so the team is likely just giving him some rest with the hope that he'll be good to go in time for Saturday's game against the Lightning. The team should have an update on his condition following their morning skate Saturday.
