Wings' May to wear visor
Chris McCosky / The Detroit News
Detroit --Wings forward Brad May is going to look a little different when he gets back on the ice -- which could be Saturday in Toronto. For the first time in his 19 NHL seasons, he's going to wear a visor.
"Whatever it takes to get out there, right?" he said.
May has been cleared to play by doctors after taking an inadvertent stick in the eye from teammate Jason Williams in Calgary last week.

"I am lucky," he said. "The stick hit me square on the eye ball. I thought it could have been so serious. But, five or six days and I feel terrific. I am a lucky guy."
The Wings did not practice Friday, so the first time he will skate since the injury will be Saturday morning in Toronto.
"I am cleared, it's just a matter of getting on the ice and falling into place wherever Babs (coach Mike Babcock) thinks it will work. I am definitely ready to go."
