How close is Tyler Maxwell?

The answer to that question is: real close. The goal scoring left wing, who’s been out about a month because of a cracked kneecap, participated fully in today’s practice. However, he’ll be a gametime decision for tomorrow’s game at Spokane.

There’s also good news concerning defenseman Trevor Bauer. Bauer isn’t ready to return just yet from his concussion, but he has rejoined practice on a limited basis. If he’s able to get through a full-contact practice he’ll be cleared to return. That leaves winger Dale Hunt (concussion) as the only player who’s definitely out this weekend.
