After seeing the reply it didn't seem like a hard hit, hopefully he isn't too seriously hurt... the list keeps getting longer for fantasy GMs

TSN update says at least a month. Crosby, Letang, Sharp, now Koivu - my team is heading even further downhill in a hurry.

#mnwild saying upper body injury for Koivu, week to week. My sources say separated shoulder, 4-6 weeks

I own Koivu & Heatley in my big-$$$ keeper.
This just about assures that Heatley will finish under 60pts. Mercy.

Thank goodness Jamie Benn won't be out long.

4-6 weeks! I have 5 guys on IR already and Zajac waiting in line to go IR the second a spot opens up... Two bench spots filled with IR guys... #Dammit.

I have Koivu on three teams - great.
