Scott Reynolds has played on the blue line for the 'Clones before so that is an option. However, Prokop is healthy and from what Chuck said Monday night, Krantz is practicing and is very close to returning.
Word on Roeder is that he is stepping up his workouts but isn't practicing with the team yet. His injury is responding well to the workouts he is putting it through. My guess is he still got a week or 2 before he'll be back. |
