Koivu to return to lineup on Tuesday
Montreal, Quebec (Sports Network) - Montreal Canadiens' captain Saku Koivu will rejoin the team for their home game Tuesday against Ottawa. Koivu's return will complete his comeback from stomach cancer, which was diagnosed in September.
Koivu, who announced in February the cancer was in full remission, has been practicing with the Canadiens. He underwent chemotherapy treatment to battle the non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
A veteran of six seasons, Koivu has 85 goals and 185 assists in 344 career games. The 27-year old center has spent his entire career with the Canadiens.
Montreal, which has 85 points, leads Washington by five points for the eighth and final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference. The Canadiens need only one victory or any combination of two points in their final three games or a loss by the Capitals to earn their first playoff spot since 1998.
