Capitals' Karl Alzner: Expects to be ready for training camp

Alzner (pelvis) expects to be "100 percent" healthy in time for training camp, Tarik El-Bashir of CSN Washington reports.

Analysis:

Alzner currently indicated he was at about "85 percent" after undergoing surgery for sports hernia and groin injury in late June. The 27-year-old defenseman appears to be making good progress in his recovery and all signs point to him in the lineup for the Oct. 13 season opener against Pittsburgh, which would afford him the chance to extend his 458-game iron-man streak.
