Today at Jets practice Rasmus Kupari was back skating as per Mike McIntyre of the Winnipeg Free Press in a regular uniform. He has been out of the lineup since March 25th when he played against the Capitals following which he was placed back into protocol. And that was after missing 21 games before that contest when he suffered a concussion in a game against the Islanders in a collision with New York’s Hudson Fasching.

Mike asked head coach Scott Arniel if Kupari was cleared following skate and this is what he said:
“Yeah. Now he can go back to some contact, go back to being in that colour. He’s missed some ice, some practices so we need to get him up and running, get a little conditioning behind him.”
Good news for him.
