Franson (upper body) is close to returning, and may be back in the lineup Thursday against the Stars, Tracey Myers of NHL.com reports.
Franson was putting up a somewhat surprising performance before his injury, notching seven points and 43 shots on net in 19 games. The veteran defenseman has missed four games with this injury.
