Ray Shero announced Thursday that Cory Schneider won’t play in any preseason games and could miss the start of the regular season as he works his way back from offseason surgery to repair torn cartilage in his left hip. [NHL]

Ray Shero on Miles Wood, who was not a participant in the opening to training camp on Thursday: “I don’t think there’s a big gap, but there’s some philosophical issues that need to be worked out with how the system works.”

Devils players have reported to training camp and the fun gets underway soon.

The four-part, all-access look at the Devils training camp will premiere Sept. 26 on NHL Network. [NHL]

After months of speculation, hand-wringing and angst, the Senators finally traded Erik Karlsson … for this?

There’s no contract extension in place, so the Sharks have just one year of Karlsson guaranteed, but what a year it could be. It’s crazy to think that this time last year, Ottawa was getting ready to open camp coming off a surprise run to the Eastern Conference Final. And now this. [NHL] [TSN]

The Stars have signed Tyler Seguin to a long-term extension: eight years and $78.8 million. One would think Ray Shero would be pretty happy to sign Taylor Hall to that deal next summer. [NHL]

In a mild surprise, Auston Matthews was not named captain of the Leafs. Instead John Tavares, Patrick Marleau and Morgan Rielly will each be alternate captains this season. [NHL]

Aaaaaaand the Lou rule is gone!

Oliver Ekman-Larsson has been named captain of the Coyotes. [NHL]

And rounding out the captaincy news, Justin Williams has been named captain of the Hurricanes. [NHL]
