Blue Jackets' Justin Danforth: Can start stickhandling

Danforth (wrist) won't resume practicing just yet, but he's ready to begin stickhandling, Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site reports Wednesday.

Danforth is working his way back from offseason wrist surgery. He had 10 goals and 26 points in 71 contests last campaign. When healthy, Danforth is likely to serve in a middle-six capacity.
