Mike Hoffman, who had been absent since December 16 due to an upper-body injury, can finally train with a regular jersey.
Christian Dvorak was also able to remove his «no contact» jersey in order to practice conventionally, indicating that he is ready to reconnect with the action. Dvorak injured his left leg against the Tampa Bay Lightning (7 December) during a seemingly routine check-up.
On the less cheerful side, Josh Anderson was still wearing a contactless shirt, Brendan Gallagher was shining with his absence, as was Paul Byron, still on the COVID-19 protocol.
