"Mikko Koivu sat out his second game because of a leg injury Monday, but it was no day off.
Koivu, Justin Falk and Chad Rau got a big dose of extra drills from assistant coach Darryl Sydor after the Wild's morning skate at the Rogers Center. All three missed Monday night's game against the Vancouver Canucks, Falk and Rau as healthy scratches.
Wild coach Mike Yeo says players working their way back into the lineup for his team will wish they were playing because they will receive plenty of additional training when they aren't.
Koivu was hurt near the end of overtime against the Chicago Blackhawks last week. Yeo said the team captain might be able to play tonight when Minnesota takes on the Flames in Calgary, adding, "I think he looks really good out there." "
