Morning from the United Center, where the Blackhawks announced this morning that coach Joel Quenneville has been hospitalized and is in stable condition for an undisclosed reason and assistant Mike Haviland will coach tonight:

Blackhawks head team physician Dr. Michael Terry:

"Joel presented severe discomfort late last night at his home in suburban Chicago. He went to the emergency room and was admitted early this morning. He is currently in stable condition and is being treated for an undisclosed health concern today, not of cardiac nature. Further testing is ongoing and we will provide an update when possible."

Blackhawks Vice President/General Manager Stan Bowman:

"Acting as head coach tonight in Joel's absence will be assistant coach Mike Haviland. We certainly wish Joel a speedy recovery and we will do everything possible to support him and his family throughout the process."

More later.

In goal tonight for the Wild will be Jose Theodore.
