Matt Bradley was back skating with his teammates for the first time on Tuesday morning since being sidelined with a concussion back on Feb. 23.
"It's been a tough year period. I'm not used to this kind of injury. It's quite frustrating," Bradley said. "It's tough to explain until you go through it. I hate watching games. I want to be a part of it. Guys are playing great, you just want to be out there and helping." Despite his anxiousness to return, he likely won't play during the Panthers' first-round series versus New Jersey.
