Staal Back at It!!!

Unbelievably (to me, anyway), Staal actually participated in practice with the team today!!!  That can only mean GOOD THINGS!!!

The Penguins webpage is reporting that he "appeared strong on his skates" - WOW!!!  It would seem as though they're planning a return soon which is totally amazing to me considering the type of injury to and his having surgery on his foot!!

Bylsma said after the Game 3 skate. "He is progressing. He was on the ice for a short time without his gear on testing out his foot and his skate. He’ll remain day-to-day and doing well."
