Jonas Brodin Reveals Broken Foot Kept Him Out of Playoff Series

Minnesota Wild defenseman Jonas Brodin revealed that a broken bone in his right foot forced him to miss the team's second-round playoff series against Colorado. Brodin suffered a fracture in his big toe after blocking a shot during Game 5 of the first-round series against Dallas. The injury required surgery, causing him to miss the clinching win over the Stars and all five games against the Avalanche. He was sidelined as the Wild were eliminated in a 4-3 overtime loss in Denver.
