Sidney Crosby is still experiencing concussion symptoms after participating in some light workouts. Not a good sign. There isn't much we can tell you Crosby owners... you've pretty much got no choice but to hang onto him and hope for the best. There is no timetable for his return.

Kari Lehtonen is coming off the IR and Stephane Robidas is going on it. Robidas will be out 10-14 days.

Ales Hemsky returned to practice on Wednesday and might return to action tonight.

Curtis Sanford is still banged up so expect to see more Steve Mason tonight for the Jackets.

Rich Peverley is tabbed to return to action on Saturday night.

Sounds like Saku Koivu is very close to returning. The team seems to think he's ready and has put the decision to return in his own hands.

Jason Blake skated for the first time since his injury. I hope for the sake of you team this isn't considered good news for you.

Chris Higgins didn't make the trip to San Jose due to a swollen hand from an infection.

Colin White is out with an UBI.
