Injured goaltender Martin Biron was cleared to skate today for the first time since suffering a broken collar bone back on February 28th. The Rangers’ backup netminder skated in full gear, but did not face any shots.
There’s still no timetable for him to return to the Rangers line up, and there’s no expectation he’d get to play even if he did. Still, having him on the bench would be a welcome addition if the Rangers can prolong their season beyond at least the two more games required Wednesday and Saturday.
