Share

Jonathan Toews skated for the sixth consecutive day today, and coach Joel Quenneville said the Blackhawks captain had another good outing on the ice.

Those guys all had a good skate, coach Joel Quenneville said, referring to Toews, Marcus Kruger (upper body) and Steve Montador (concussion). Everyone was feeling all right.

As far as when Toews would be cleared for contact, Quenenville said, we havent discussed that yet. Hell tell us when that time is close and hopefully its soon.

Montador has already been cleared for contact. Quenneville said well get him some more contact this week well see how he progresses and get him there at some point.

Sami Lepisto (left leg) also skated some this morning. Quenneville said Lepisto had tried skating before but he had his first real spin today.
