Don't know if it's a bad thing that nothing has made me more happy than hearing this in probably the past couple weeks.

Steve Zipay ‏@stevezipay
Arron Asham also not on ice; even though this is optional morning skate. Appears he will miss fourth straight tonight. Bickel in F jersey

If Nash plays.....

Hagelin-Stepan-Nash
Pyatt-Richards-Gaborik
Powe-Boyle-Callahan
Bickel-Halpern-Mashinter?

Miller and Kreider sitting?

[nevesis]

“@AGrossRecord: Rick Nash and Chris Kreider are the last two on the ice to work with coaches and backup goalie Marty Biron. They may be the scratches.”

“@AGrossRecord: Check that on Nash and Kreider. Kreider called off the ice. Now only Nash still out there working with Biron.”

I think there's no way Torts sits Miller, even if he does deserve it (and a trip back to the A, IMHO).

I bet we see...

Hagelin - Stepan - Nash
Pyatt - Richards - Gaborik
Miller - Boyle - Callahan
Mash - Halpern - Powe

[Ailurophile]

The fact he is skating is good enough news for me.

[nevesis]

“@AGrossRecord: Nash doesn't think he'll be ready tonight. Has been skating since last week on his own. Won't specify his injury. Says it was a few things.”

“@AGrossRecord: I asked Nash directly if he had a concussion. He said he's not a doctor, he had a few issues.”

“@KatieStrangESPN: #NYR Nash said he hopes to be back soon, did not give definitive answer on whether he'll play tonight but called today's step a "positive"”

“@AGrossRecord: However, Nash does not deny at least one issue stemmed from Lucic hit in Boston.”

“@KatieStrangESPN: #NYR Nash sidestepped question of whether he had concussion, said he's not a doctor but was "banged-up" and dealing with a bunch of things”

[nyrpassion]

Bounce back game

[RussianRangersFan]

Based on his answers, seems like its a minor concussion that he and the organization is being extra cautious about.

[-31-]

lol @ he's not a doctor. Surely he's discussed his injuries with some though...

[nevesis]

“@NYDNRangers: Players out for tonight's game: McDonagh, Nash, Asham and a forward to be named later. Nash practiced today tho #NYR”

[NYSportsfan87]

Even if he doesn't play tonight, I'm glad to see him skating this morning. Great news

This line made me chuckle since the Jets have only been back for one and a third seasons...

And they weren't a team prior to that? Would you rather I call you the Thrashers?

[Lundsanity30]

Hopefully we can just continue to stay afloat until we get healthy. We are only 1 pt from the playoffs with games in hand on everyone but Boston.

I may be a Jets fan, but I come in peace. No disrespect intended. It just made me chuckle, is all.

no chuckling in our thread

[Lundsanity30]

so Nash hasn't officially been ruled out, though he's doubtful?

[Grind Jam Grind]

Yay! Rick Nash still exists. Love the guy, hope he can get back for us soon.

Missing him and McD is a huge blow. Time for Beaver to step up.
