Detroit Red Wings' Jakub Vrana hurts shoulder 10 minutes after arriving to camp

TRAVERSE CITY — Jakub Vrana, one of the Detroit Red Wings' top forwards, lasted only a few shifts his first day of training camp.

Vrana just joined the Wings on Saturday, landing Friday in Detroit and then proceeding north after being held up in his native Czech Republic because of visa issues. The Wings started a six-day camp Sept. 23 at Centre Ice Arena.

"Jakub hurt his shoulder without the first 10 minutes of practice," coach Jeff Blashill said. "He’ll be re-evaluated and we’ll see where he’s at."

Vrana, 25, was acquired in April at the trade deadline, part of the deal that sent Anthony Mantha to the Washinton Capitals and also gave the Wings a first- and second-round draft pick.
