MINNEAPOLIS – Bail has been set at $12,000 for Minnesota Wild assistant coach Darryl Sydor in a drunken-driving case.

The former NHL player was arrested in suburban Fridley while he was taking his 12-year-old son to a hockey tournament Thursday.

Online court records say Sydor didn’t have a lawyer when he made his appearance in Anoka County District Court on Friday.

Bail was set at $12,000, which is standard in such drunken driving cases. He was also given the option of enrolling in an alcohol treatment program instead.

Sydor’s next court date was set for Oct. 12.

Sydor has been an assistant coach for the Wild for the past four seasons. He also played 18 seasons in the NHL.
