Sullivan’s Hope

For the first time in a long time, we seem to have optimistic news about Steve Sullivan and a potential return to hockey after nearly two years lost to back injuries…
Last week, Sully was quoted on a website in his hometown of Timmins, Ontario as saying that, in an optimistic view, he could actually be back playing hockey by Christmas (hat tip to Dobber Hockey). In this morning’s Tennessean, John Glennon got further clarification and comment:
Sullivan, who’s been out of action since February 2007 because of disc problems in his back, has experienced no setbacks in his workouts over the past six weeks and hopes to increase his workload this week.
“That’s a longer period (without setbacks) than I’ve had in a long time,’’ Sullivan said.
Now, it’s important to note that all we’ve got here is progress and optimism; there are still many steps to go before Sully even gets back on the ice in a workout mode. All the same, the thought of adding a talented goal-scorer, even if he was only able to play a limited role, is enticing to Predators fans.
