Eriksson Ek (lower body) won't play in Tuesday's Game 5 versus the Stars, Dane Mizutani of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

EDGE Analysis

Eriksson Ek wasn't skating as of Monday, so it's no surprise he's out of the lineup again. Game 6 is scheduled for Friday, which gives Eriksson Ek an extra day between contests, though it's unclear if that'll be enough time for him to be ready to play again.
