Del Zotto Sits Out Practice

Andrew Gross at Ranger Rants reports that Michael Del Zotto is still recovering from the laceration to his chest suffered at Pittsburgh and did not participate in the Rangers first practice since the Olympic break, today.

He said he wouldn’t skate until the stitches are taken out, which he expects to happen this weekend. Meaning he is questionable for Tuesday's game in Ottawa.

As far as practice goes the players were on the ice for about 50 minutes and will also be on the ice tomorrow, Friday, Saturday and Monday before flying to Ottawa. Over the last 15 minutes, assistants Jim Schoenfeld and Mike Sullivan put the players through a conditioning skate that ended with rounds of on-ice push-ups.

...sounds like Del Zotto is progressing nicely.

...how about this USA/Swiss game? Great stuff.
