Marner (ankle) is at practice Friday and is expected to rejoin the lineup Saturday in Montreal, Terry Koshan of The Toronto Sun reports.
Marner is back in his spot on the first power play at practice, which is a good indication that he's ready to return. He's racked up 25 goals and 76 points in 62 games this season. Look for Marner to be activated off long-term injured reserve and return to his usual featured role against the Canadiens following his 12-game absence.
