Another day off for Henrik Zetterberg, Friday, who is being listed as having the flu. The forward, who missed the last 19 games of the regular season with an inflamed disk in his back hasn't missed a game in the post-season, but hasn't practiced in more than a week.

This was not an optional practice. The only other missing players were those with injuries ... Tomas Holmstrom (eye) and Brett Lebda (ankle).
