Gustav Forsling out vs. Wild, could play vs. Canadiens on Sunday

Chicago Blackhawks defenseman Gustav Forsling could be ready to return from injury Sunday against the Montreal Canadiens, but he’ll miss the game on Saturday against the Minnesota Wild, reports the Chicago Sun-Times’ Mark Lazerus.

Forsling has already missed one game after suffering an upper-body injury against the Colorado Avalanche last week. The team has had to shake up its defensive pairings without him, sliding Jan Rutta over to the left side for the first time in his career. It appears he’ll stay there for Saturday’s game against Minnesota.
