Jake Gardiner progresses to light workouts
Jake Gardiner - D - Toronto Maple Leafs
Jan. 3, 2013 - 6:30 PM ET

Jake Gardiner is still sidelined because of a combination of concussion and whiplash symptoms.

"The best way to describe it is that he's had no setbacks," Toronto Marlies coach Dallas Eakins said. "I don't care if we are down to three defensemen. You don't rush those (head injuries). He's progressed to light workouts." The smooth-skating blueliner, who has been out since Dec. 8, has been seen around the dressing room but he hasn't been able to return to the ice yet.
