Darryl Sutter provided his second update in as many days on injured forward Jarret Stoll, who hasn’t played since Game 1 of the San Jose series due to an injury that indications point towards being a concussion.
Stoll rode the stationary bike on Thursday, and on Friday stepped onto the ice for the first time since his collision with Sharks forward Raffi Torres.
Darryl Sutter, on Jarret Stoll’s progress:
“He skated for a few minutes this morning, so you just keep seeing where it goes. It’s not if he fell off the bike because he had a headache or something, then you’re back to square one. It’s basically, OK, he rode the bike, had a certain heart rate for eight minutes, so it’s really not that big a deal. So this morning he went and skated for 15, so then you just evaluate again tomorrow morning and go from there. So that means there’s still significant, long ways to go. [Reporter: That was the first time he skated?] Yep.”
