Rangers captain Chris Drury practiced with the team Sunday for the first time since he suffered a concussion Nov. 7 in Calgary and his return seems possible on this week's road trip to Florida and Pittsburgh.
Drury centered a line with Enver Lisin and Ales Kotalik. His return would help the Rangers (11-10-1) in the middle, where they also are missing Brandon Dubinsky, who broke his right hand blocking a shot in the same game against the Flames.
Chris Higgins, who had moved to center from his regular position as left wing, skated Sunday on the No. 1 line with Vinny Prospal and Marian Gaborik as the Rangers prepared to host the Columbus Blue Jackets Monday night.
