Johansson (upper-body) will return to the Wild lineup on Monday.

Johansson has missed the last 16 games with an upper-body injury but will play Monday vs. the Ducks. Johansson skated on the third line with Joel Eriksson Ek and Jordan Greenway in Sunday's practice, so look for him to skate there on Monday. Johansson has two goals and one assist in 11 games this season.

The Wild have acquired Marcus Johansson from the Sabres for Eric Staal.

The Wild likely acquired Johansson with the idea of him playing centre but he hasn't been very good in the middle throughout his career, including last year in Buffalo. Johansson had just nine goals and 30 points in 60 games with the Sabres in 2019-20 and now joins a Minnesota team devoid of a No.1 centre.

Johansson (illness) will be back in the Sabres lineup on Tuesday.

Johansson missed Monday's game vs. the Ducks but will be back in the lineup tonight vs. the Red Wings. Johansson, who has 22 points (6G / 16A) in 48 games this season, will start on the second line with Curtis Lazar and Conor Sheary and return to his spot on the top-PP unit.

Johansson (upper-body) will return to the Sabres lineup on Wednesday.

Johansson missed the last seven games with an upper-body injury he suffered on November 9th in Sweden. Johansson was on the second line with Casey Mittelstadt and Jimmy Vesey in Wednesday's morning skate and will play vs. the Flames. He has four goals and six assists (10 points) in 17 games this season.

Marcus Johansson
Johansson will miss at least one week with a lung contusion.

Johansson underwent evaluation at Massachusetts General Hospital after leaving Tuesday’s game vs. the Hurricanes and was diagnosed with a lung contusion. Johansson will be re-evaluated in one week. Peter Cehlarik will move onto the second line on Thursday with Johansson sidelined.
