Wild: Justin Fontaine in, Matt Cooke out for Game 3

With Justin Fontaine healthy after a 24-hour stomach virus, the Wild returned to the lineup that beat the St. Louis Blues 4-2 in Game 1 of their first-round playoff series.

With Fontaine unable to play in Game 2, coach Mike Yeo inserted Matt Cooke and Jordan Schroeder into the lineup. And though he said those two played fine, Yeo returned back to the Game 1 lineup when the Wild and Blues were set to meet Monday night in Game 3.

That put Sean Bergenheim back at left wing on the fourth line, playing next to Kyle Brodziak and Fontaine with hopes of adding some offensive punch.
