Dave Bolland will be back in the Blackhawks' lineup tonight against Minnesota after missing five games with…um, well, it wasn't a concussion.

Bolland wouldn't elaborate on what kept him out, according to Tim Sassone of the Daily Herald. The 26-year-old center would only say it wasn't a concussion.

Bolland missed the last 14 games of the 2010-11 regular season, as well as three playoff games, with a head injury. Thus, all the concussion talk now.

The Blackhawks, you may have heard, have yet to lose a game in regulation. But the Wild are playing well, too, and would love to stop Chicago's points streak at 22 games.
