Carolina Hurricanes forward Jeff Skinner has been cleared for contact and rejoined his teammates for full practice Wednesday, according to Chip Alexander of the Raleigh News and Observer.

Skinner out of no-contact jersey. Should be good to go. — Chip Alexander (@ice_chip) October 15, 2014

The Hurricanes iced a top line that included Elias Lindholm, Victor Rask and Jiri Tlusty in a shootout loss to the Buffalo Sabres on Tuesday, so Skinner's return will be welcome.
