Johan Franzen (hip) won't play Thursday, but he's hoping to return this weekend. "They're going to do an ultrasound today to see if it's healed or it it's starting to heal," Franzen said Thursday. "I've been pushing real hard the last 3-4 days. It feels better to me. As long as I can skate hard I'm real happy." He has already missed the team's last four games and will sit for a fifth straight time Thursday night.
