Report: Wild's Folin, Ballard sick; expected to sit Thursday vs. Coyotes

The Minnesota Wild's third defensive pairing may need a little more time on the ice, and a little less time hunkered down together on the bench. 

Christian Folin and Keith Ballard are expected to sit Thursday's game against the Arizona Coyotes after both falling ill, reports Michael Russo of the Minneapolis Star-Tribune. 

Matt Dumba and Nate Prosser are expected to draw in for the Wild.
