Sammy Blais Back on the Ice for New York

New York Rangers forward Sammy Blais was seen on the ice working with the team's skills coach before regular practice.

Blais was injured on a play against New Jersey Devils' defenseman P.K. Subban back in November. He suffered a torn ACL on the play - an injury which is usually season-ending with a minimum six month rehabilitation period. He had successful surgery in mid-December.

It is unclear if Blais will be able to return for the Rangers second round matchup against the Hurricanes, or even a later round if they move on. Injuries are beginning to pile up for the Blueshirts: Barclay Goodrow out week-to-week, Ryan Lindgren obviously battling through something from the first round against Pittsburgh, and now Tyler Motte injured in Game 1 against Carolina.

It would be a welcome sight to have a player light Blais back in the lineup.
