"The concussion had no negative effects on my coordination," said the 26-year-old defender to the newspaper. "I will be able to make some endurance training this week. And, if nothing else happens, I should return to the ice already next week."

Josi suffered the concussion in last Friday's game against the Boston Bruins, as he took a hit to the head from Anton Blidh after 16 minutes in the first period. It is already the seventh concussion for Josi in his career.
