Rangers Practice News 10/26/2010. Lines + Injury Updates (Gaborik, Sauer)

Not a whole lot of news out of Rangers practice itself today as the lines went back to how they were before the Williams call-up. There was some on the injury front regarding Marian Gaborik.  First the lines:

Dubinsky-Anisimov-Callahan
Avery-Stepan-Fedetenko
Frolov-Christensen-Prust
Boogaard-White-Boyle

Injury update:
Marian Gaborik was said to be riding the bike without a sling today which is a good sign that the shoulder is feeling a little better and progressing towards a return.  That he is not skating yet means we are still probably at least a week or two away from a return.  With the way the team is playing right now there is no reason to rush him back too soon, so let him heal fully and go from there.

Update: Steve Zipay says that Gaborik intends to try and skate early next week which would be about on my timeline if not a little delayed:
stevezipay Gaborik has no timetable bu hopes to try first skate early next week
According to Jesse Spector Mike Sauer skated fully in practice:
NYDNRangers  Practiced fully, looked fine. I didn't talk to him, though. RT @mleetch352: any news on sauer and his soreness for tomorrow's game?

Hopefully he will be available for tomorrow’s game against Atlanta as I and many other Ranger fan feel more comfortable on defense when he is out there than either Eminger or Gilroy.

Brandon Prust still wearing the visor after the facial injury from the stick of Bruin Gregory Campbell.  Apparently Campbell called Prust to apologize for the incident.  Wonder if Dubinsky is calling Boychuk to apologize for the slash that broke his forearm.
