Rick Nash (concussion) took part in his first Rangers' practice in a little over a month.
Nash wore a no-contact jersey during the morning skate. "I felt pretty good actually, better than I thought I would feel. I kept up but there's still some work that needs to be done," Nash said. "I think right now I'm just following the doctor's plans and the trainers, been following it this long so there's no point going off course." That being said, there is no timetable for his return.

Rangers coach Alain Vigneault has confirmed that Rick Nash (concussion) will take part in Wednesday's practice.
Nash skated for four straight days, so this is the next step. As is to be expected with a player dealing with a concussion, the Rangers still don't have a timetable for Nash's return.

Rick Nash skated again on Sunday as he tries to return from a concussion.
Nash suffered the injury on October 8 and said on Saturday that he had gone three or four days without experiencing concussion symptoms so that is great news for the winger. Nash is still out indefinitely but at least he is back on the ice. Continue to keep him reserved.

Rick Nash reported that he's gone "three to four days" without experiencing concussion symptoms.
"It's good to be back and be around the guys and see them, for sure," Nash said after skating prior to Saturday's practice. "There's definitely been good days and bad days over the last four weeks. It would make a couple of steps forward, then step back and I strung together a good three or four days and it's been all positive since then." Nash hasn't played since Oct. 8 because of a concussion and there's no timetable for his return. Still, it's encouraging that he appears to be making some progress.

Rick Nash (concussion) may soon be on the way back to the New York Rangers' lineup.
The superstar right winger practiced and skated with the Rangers today. He has been on the team's injury list since mid-October. The Rangers have not done especially well and clearly have missed their most talented scorer. The 29-year-old suffered the injury when he was elbowed by San Jose Sharks defenseman Brad Stuart. Stuart was suspended for three games for the hit. In the three games he played this season, Nash has three assists.

New York Rangers star Rick Nash's concussion is causing "growing concern" around the NHL, according to Sportsnet's Chris Johnston.
Nash has been limited to three games thanks to that Brad Stuart hit on Oct. 8. Word is that this could be a long-term concern for the 29-year-old forward, which is rough news because he was such a key cog in the Rangers' offense.

In all likelihood, Rick Nash (concussion) will not be available for what would have been his first game against the Columbus Blue Jackets on Thursday.
Nash used to be the face of the Blue Jackets' franchise, but he demanded a trade and was sent to the Rangers in the summer of 2012. The lockout kept the two teams from meeting in the shortened 2013 campaign, but thanks to the realignment, they're now in the same division. Unfortunately, Nash has been out since Oct. 8 and there's been nothing to suggest that he's close to returning.

The New York Rangers said that there is no change in the status of Rick Nash who is out with a concussion.
The longer this goes on without a status change, the more serious the concussion seems to be. This was his second concussion in two seasons and he has been out of action since October 8. We will keep you updated.

There's been "no change" in the condition of Rick Nash (concussion).
Nash is dealing with his second concussion in two seasons. There's no timetable for his return, which is typical for a concussion, but with every passing day that there's no news, the fear that this could turn sideline him for a long time increases.
