ARLINGTON, Va. -- Brian Pothier is just now taking baby steps
along a long road to recovery from his "fourth or fifth"
concussion, suffered when he was hit by the Bruins' Milan Lucic
more than 11 months ago.
The Washington defenceman, who was in the Senators organization
from 2002-06, skated on Wednesday for the first time since his
injury. He was back on the ice again between Washington and Ottawa
practices at the Kettler Iceplex yesterday.
"I just floated around," Pothier said of his return to the
slippery surface, referring to the casualness of the skate and not
a foggy state of mind.
