Clowe on the ice for practice, but in white jersey while other forwards in blue. Dorsett in blue (contact). Staal, Boyle also on the ice.

good, Dorsett should be in then I would think. Boyle for the PK and Clowe likely still 50/50.

Would be really big if even a few guys were back. Staal would the biggest of course
 
Dorsett is a hitter. The Rangers need someone to get under the Caps skin. If he catches a Cap with his head down like Mike Green,so be it.
 
I thought Newbury played pretty well last game, but it seems an inevitability that he will give way for Dorsett.
 
Having Dorsett back would be very nice. Move someone down and out of the bottom six, get a guy who can really hit hard and get under the Caps skin.
 
Finally some good news on the injury fronts.

Clowe in a non-contact jersey = concussion I think.

Whatever it is/was, the fact that he's back on the ice is good news. If it was a serious concussion, he would still be doing off-ice workouts at best. Neal - who didn't even seem to have a serious concussion - didn't return to on-ice practices with the Pens after the MDZ hit for a few weeks.
 
Not every concussion is a long term Sauer thing. He rode the bike yesterday. Probably felt good this morning. He gets on the ice for the 1st time since last Thursday.

Yes!!!

Dorsett should play tomorrow, he's been practicing for a while, and is probably good to go, I'd guess we also see Boyle as well.

I actually thought Newbury played well last night, although he probably sits, I could see Pyatt/Krieder(Love the kid, but he hasn't proved that he deserves a roster spot this season) sitting, problem then is that we're missing a third liner, which means that Boyle would end up on the third line with Dorsett and Brassard, which is not so ideal. Unfortunatley, for that reason, Newbury probably sits with Krieder, and Boyle will probably get slotted onto 4th line center with Powe/Asham, although knowing torts, he could put Powe as the 4th line center, Dorsett on the 4th line, and put Boyle on 3rd line wing, although that would be less ideal IMHO.
 
That would be absolutely huge, I know it's a mixed bag around here as far as whether or not Clowe is good or bad but he brings some things we need. He was brought here for a few reasons one of them being an imposing player in the playoffs.

Anyone who thinks he is not a HUGE improvement for this team hasn't watched many games.
