Today was an optional practice, as just about half the team was not present. Two of them, Jay Beagle and Semyon Varlamov, are still out with injuries. Beagle is still considered day-to-day with his upper-body injury at this point, but he is likely going to travel with the team down to Florida. The news is not good, however, when it comes to Semyon Varlamov. Bruce Boudreau announced after the skate that Varly is expected to miss another week to ten days with his lower-body (knee) injury and not go on the trip to Florida.
The players that did skate, on the other hand, were as follows: Tom Poti, Matt Bradley, Eric Fehr, DJ Kings, Jason Chimera, Matt Hendricks, Karl Alzner, Michal Neuvirth, Jeff Schultz, Braden Holtby, John Carlson, Tyler Sloan, and Marcus Johansson. They participated in short, limited intensity drills, and some good news is that Tom Poti and Eric Fehr both made it through the practice without incident. Poti will go on the trip, but the jury is still out of Fehr (for now).
