The goaltender has not played this season after undergoing two back surgeries, the last one in October. However his rehabilitation has picked up in the last week.
“He’s been doing a lot actually,” Anderson said Monday. “We took him on the [recent] road [trip] and practiced him pretty hard. He’s getting closer. It’s a matter of conditioning. I hate to give a time frame, but two to three weeks I don’t think is out of the realm.”
Lehtonen had an on-ice workout with assistant coach Steve Weeks following Monday’s practice.
