Wild center Mikko Koivu says his surgically repaired right shoulder and right knee are in good shape and he is on track for training camp, according to an Associated Press report on Friday. Koivu had the operations in April, and the shoulder required four months of rehabilitation after the repair of his torn labrum.

Minnesota Wild center James Sheppard has a fractured left kneecap and there is no timetable for his return, according to an Associated Press report on Tuesday. Sheppard was hurt in an off-ice accident on Saturday night in Vail, Colo., but the team did not say what happened.

Penguins forward Jordan Staal is expected to miss the start of training camp. Staal is recovering from an infection to his right foot, which was severely injured during the NHL playoffs. Penguins general manager Ray Shero believes Staal will be ready for the Oct. 7 opener against the Flyers.
