Kyle Dubas didn't have much of an update on Filip Hallander, who is working his way back from a blood clot found in his leg in November.
The hope, Dubas said, is that Hallander will be able to return before the end of the season.
"He's got more appointments scheduled here, today and tomorrow," Dubas said. "Everyone knows how careful we have to be with it when you come back from that type of injury. He's a young guy with a family. We have to be extraordinarily sensitive and careful, and (Dr. Dharmesh Vyas) and the medical staff have handled it as well as you can. And what I would say is once we get through these next couple of appointments, we'll offer a more robust update and keep everybody in the loop of what his status is."
