Status report

Samoskevich, a forward, skated in a noncontact jersey Thursday but remains day to day, Kraken coach Lane Lambert said. ... Huberdeau has been working out and skating on his own, but the forward will start the season on injured reserve for the Flames as he continues to recover from hip resurfacing surgery in March.
