Calvert lost teeth and needed stitches to close the wound, but returned to the game. Bouchard will miss Monday's game against the New York Islanders and Tuesday's game against the Ottawa Senators.

Wild forward Pierre Marc-Bouchard suffered a broken nose after being pushed from behind into the boards in the Wild's 2-1 loss to Winnipeg Tuesday night. Bouchard was held out of Wednesday night's game against Chicago, but says he isn't feeling any "big symptoms" of a concussion.

After missing the first day of practice Saturday, the Wild’s Pierre-Marc Bouchard came out on the ice Sunday ready to go. He’s back after missing more than a hundred games last season because of a concussion. He says he’s back to 100-percent.

Winnipeg Jets defenseman Zach Bogosian probably won't face additional punishment for smashing Wild forward Pierre-Marc Bouchard into the boards from behind in Tuesday night's game. Bouchard went down hard, leaving blood on the ice and a broken nose.

A three-member appeals panel overturned player suspensions for the “Bounty 4," Saints linebacker Jonathan Vilma, free agent Anthony Hargrove, Browns linebacker Scott Fujita and Saints defensive end Will Smith. The suspensions are immediately void and the case is being sent back to the NFL where Commissioner Roger Goodell can reconsider discipline.

Saints linebacker Jonathan Vilma is appealing his season-long suspension for his part in BountyGate. Vilma says NFL commissioner Roger Goodell shouldn’t have the final say in the matter. Vilma reportedly offered $10,00 to the player who forced Brett Favre out of 2009 NFC title game.
