Dollas Coming Back Slowly

Defenseman Bobby Dollas looked tentative and perhaps a step slow after a monthlong layoff because of a cut tendon in his left forearm. Dollas suffered the injury Oct. 28 against Toronto. “Baby steps,” he said of his progress. “I didn’t play 30 minutes, but that’s probably good right now.”
