The Wild will likely be without forward Marcus Johansson for the rest of the playoffs after he broke his arm in Thursday night’s loss.
Head coach Dean Evason told reporters about the injury Friday morning which came during the first period of Game 3 after Johansson crashed into the side of the Golden Knights’ net.

Now, the question becomes this: Who takes Johansson’s spot in the lineup? Will it be Zach Parise, who has been a healthy scratch through the first three playoff games?
The Wild trail Las Vegas 2-1 in the best-of-seven series, with Game 4 in St. Paul Saturday night at 7 p.m.
