Hornqvist ‘making significant progress,’ skates with team

Patric Hornqvist joined his teammates for practice on Sunday morning at PPG Paints Arena, wearing a gray no-contact jersey.

This was the first time Hornqvist skated with the team since he sustained a lower-body injury on Nov. 2, although he has skated on his own before Sunday.

"He's making significant progress," Mike Sullivan said of Hornqvist's status. "Obviously the fact that he's joining the team in a non-contact jersey is an indication of that. I thought with the limited time I had an opportunity to watch him today, as we spent a lot of time on our power play, I thought he looked pretty good.
