It is no secret that Mr Game Seven remains close to the franchise that he captained last season, and close to the friends and teammates he had with him over the past few years, but it has been thought he is close to returning. When is it realistic to expect him back?
Justin Williams supposedly resumed skating while the team was away during their road trip of California, and with Erik Haula side-lined for an extended amount of time, there’s a spot in the line-up that would need to be filled. Ideally, by someone who can contribute to help lead the team, and who better to do that than the teams former captain?
