Shea Theodore is finished sitting.
The Golden Knights defenseman will be back in the lineup Friday at T-Mobile Arena against the Ottawa Senators after missing six games with a sore throat and respiratory condition. Theodore will take Luca Sbisa’s spot in the lineup after Sbisa was injured Tuesday against the Los Angeles Kings.
“I feel good and ready to go,” Theodore said after Thursday’s practice at City National Arena. “I missed being around the rink. It’s good to be back practicing. When you’re not around the guys, it’s tough.”
Coach Gerard Gallant said the team has missed Theodore, who has four goals and 18 points and last played Feb.
