Carolina defenseman David Tanabe skated Tuesday for the first time since breaking his right wrist a month ago, but his return for the Eastern Conference finals is still questionable.
Tanabe has been sidelined since suffering the injury in Game 1 of the opening-round playoff series against New Jersey. Tanabe has been fitted with a soft cast. While Tanabe has begun to skate, he won’t be used in Games 1 and 2 of the Eastern finals Thursday and Sunday, and may not return for at least another week.
