NHL Playoffs: CHI @ DET

N-ice strides for Mo
By RANDY SPORTAK, QMI Agency




CALGARY - Calgary Flames forward Brendan Morrison is back on the blades, but said a return from his knee injury is not as close as he’d like.

“It’s making an improvement, which is good,” Morrison said Monday. “It’s nice to be on the ice, but we’ve still got a ways to go. There’s still some swelling that’s lingering, but it does feel pretty good on the ice.

“I’ve skated a couple of times, so I guess that’s a good sign, but there’s still no timetable.”

Morrison injured his left knee in the March 2 game in Chicago.

He battled through an injury a few seasons ago, which didn’t improve until after surgery.

“The one I had before is a little bit worse,” Morrison said.

“I’ve been through a serious knee injury before, so I know what to expect, how you have to deal with it. It’s a lot of time, and that’s something we don’t have a lot of right now.”










After benching Brad Richards should the New York Rangers eventually just buy him out?
  Yes.
  Might be a good idea.
  No.
  Not sure.
