Thornton, Nick Robertson and Travis Dermott were all on the ice for a skills session ahead of the morning skate. They both stuck around for the team's skate as well. Keefe added he doesn't expect either Thornton or Robertson back in the next week as both players will require more practices before coming off IR.

Meanwhile, Dermott could be available Wednesday but Keefe said he has not received a full update on him yet.
