Marc-Andre Fleury isn’t the only Golden Knights player ready to leave the injured reserve list.
Forward David Perron could be activated in time for Friday’s game at Nashville after being on IR since Nov. 24 when he suffered an upper-body injury against San Jose. Fleury has been out since suffering a concussion Oct. 13.
“I think I’m real close,” Perron said after Wednesday’s practice at City National Arena. “I’ll be on the trip and I hope to play in the next game.”
The final decision will be made by team doctors and general manager George McPhee along with Perron, who has six goals and 19 points but has missed the last six games.
