Halak (groin) was on the ice Wednesday, Arthur Staple of Newsday reports.

Analysis:

While it's a good sign that Halak is back on the ice, he's not yet practicing with the team or taking shots. Then again, the way Thomas Greiss has played versus Florida in the first three games of the playoffs, the Isles aren't really missing much in net. Halak has already been ruled out of the first round, but if the Isles advance and he's deemed healthy enough to play, coach Jack Capuano will have an interesting decision on his hands.
