Finally! Some good injury news for the Nashville Predators! According to a report from 102.5 The Game, Preds defenseman Ryan Ellis took to the ice for the first time this morning since he had offseason knee surgery.

The early prognosis on Ellis was that he’d be out of the team’s lineup for 4-6 months, with an expected return date of January or February. But… does this latest development mean that Ellis could be back on the blue line before the scheduled timeline?

No official update from head coach Peter Laviolette or GM David Poile, but be sure to watch reports closely this week. If Ellis continues to rehab this quickly, there’s a chance he could be back in the lineup before the New Year.
