ST. PAUL - In the Minnesota Wild's 5-2 win over the Vegas Golden Knights on Thursday, forward Marcus Johansson left the game with an injury. 

Johansson, 34, was hit hard by Vegas defenseman Brayden McNabb in the third period. He slowly went to the bench and later missed the last 13 minutes of the game.

Wild head coach John Hynes did not have an update after the game and on Friday, Hynes said Johansson is still being evaluated and is listed as questionable for Game 4 on Saturday.

The Wild have forwards Vinnie Hinostroza and Devin Shore as healthy scratches skating with the team. Either of them could enter the lineup for Johansson if he can't play.

Or they have Liam Ohgren as a black ace, and he could enter the lineup.
