Great news
Backes is backes to practice today in a white jersey with spooner and DK
Still can't believe he was practicing and there is a slight chance he could suit up next game.
I was worried he'd be gone for at least a month.
It certainly sounded that way. I just hope he doesn't have a set back from trying to come back too soon. Concussions are tricky and I believe this is his third or fourth documented concussion.
There's no way he'd be allowed back if he wasn't ready. This isn't the 90s, you can't fake being better anymore from concussions.
Claude Julien on Matt Beleskey earlier today: "I think he started skating yesterday for the first time (since the injury). I think he skated once, maybe twice, but very 'mild' if you want to put it that way. Easy skate, I should have said."Whats the lastest on Belesky ? Have not heard when he may be returning.
Have not heard zip on him.

I thought Colin came back after missing a few shifts?
He was back on the bench, but I don't think Claude put him back in. Maybe with the game well in hand, he didn't want to risk it, or maybe Colin wanted to be there? I could be wrong, but I am pretty sure he never did get back on the ice.
Didn't he get on the ice right as they scored that pp goal during kmillers high stick?

This is not a good time, if there ever was one, for two defenseman to go on the shelf. Down on the farm, Rob O'Gara, Linus Arnesson, Matt Barkowski and Matt Grzelcyk have all missed time recently with an assortment of maladies.

Any word on Adam or Colin? My guess is high ankle sprain for Colin , shoulder or collarbone for Adam?
McQuaid stayed in St. Louis for observation. Sure sounds like a concussion. You get hit like he did his insides had to be going all over the place
If true this is not a good thing for him and maybe not getting in those 2 fights were a blessing
His style and history are worrisome
Miller is doubtful tomorrow so expect Liles & Morrow and hopefully Cross called up
Looked like shoulder or something on his right side to me.

Wonder if it's ribs. They took Bergeron for observation when they were afraid of a spleen injury and it was ribs/torn cartilage causing the problem.
