He hopes to be ready for the season opener, but more should be known about his status after today's practice. "I'm better, a little bit sore, but better," Zubrus said. "I skipped ice the last two days, gave my knee a little bit of rest. I want to be ready to play, but I don't want to overdo it because it's still sensitive."
