Tim Gleason (concussion) is still on track to potentially return on Thursday. Gleason is naturally eager to return. "I know you watch it up top, but there's nothing like being at ice level and playing," Gleason said. "The first few games back, at least from my perspective, I'll have to play simple. Short shifts, things like that. There's nothing like game speed and it's not like I've only been out a week or two. But I'll just play my game and try to provide some physical play." Whenever Gleason returns, he'll be participating in his 600th career game.
