FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. -- Shaone Morrisonn, who has been suffering from a concussion and has missed the past four games, is ready to resume exercise after being shut down for a week.
"Shaone is going to start skating," Sabres coach Lindy Ruff said after practice today in HSBC Arena. "He’s symptom free now, so we’re going to get him riding a bike, we’ll get him skating, and we’ll see how he progresses."
The Sabres are set to head to Fort Lauderdale, Fla., to meet the Panthers on Friday. They are coming off a 3-2 victory over Boston. Their special teams keyed the victory, with two power-play goals and a stop during a two-man disadvantage.
Meanwhile, Bucky Gleason reports that the Sabres' sale to Terrence Pegula remains on track.
