According to a report from Comcast Sportsnet, Sharks general manager Doug Wilson and coach Todd McLellan said on Wednesday that they will begin training camp without any captain or alternate captains.

ESPN's Linda Cohn says a heavy change-making machine fell on her arm at Hudson Valley's Brewster Ice Arena and sliced her so badly she needed 25 stitches.

The 54-year-old Southbury, Connecticut, resident raised the allegations in a lawsuit recently served on the rink's owners. She's demanding unspecified damages plus costs and expenses.

Cohn's lawyer Jonathan Silver says it happened in March in an arcade area of the rink as she was getting ready to practice for a promotion with a New York Rangers minor league team.

Cohn posted a picture on Twitter showing her stitched-up arm looking like a baseball.

Charles Wang has an agreement to eventually transfer ownership of the New York Islanders to a group led by Jon Ledecky.

Ledecky is a former co-owner of the Washington Capitals.

Ledecky and London-based investor Scott Malkin reached a deal to purchase a "substantial minority interest" in the team, pending league approval by the NHL board of governors, with the stipulation that the group would take over majority ownership in two years.

Wang would continue as the majority shareholder during that time.

A source told ESPN.com that the vote by the board of governors would likely happen in December.

"We are pleased to have the opportunity to become partners in the New York Islanders with Charles and to pursue our shared dream of winning a fifth Stanley Cup for the greatest fans in the NHL," Ledecky said in a statement.
