New Jersey Devils forward Nico Hischier won't participate in the beginning of his club's training camp on Jan. 1 due to a leg injury suffered while training in Switzerland in early December, reports Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman.

The Devils don't consider the injury a long-term issue, and they believe Hischier's recovery will take a matter of days or weeks, Friedman adds. He didn't undergo surgery.

New Jersey selected the 21-year-old first overall in 2017, and he's spent the last three seasons with the team, accumulating 51 goals and 84 assists in 209 career games.

With the season set to begin on Jan. 13, it's unclear if Hischier will miss any time beyond training camp.

Team Canada was dominant once again, defeating Switzerland 10-0 on Tuesday for the country's third win at the world juniors.

Quinton Byfield led the way with two goals and four assists as Canada outshot Switzerland 52-15. Goaltender Devon Levi stayed in net for the entire game, earning a 15-save shutout.

The players of the game were Byfield and Simon Knak.

Canada has now won its first three games of the tournament by a combined score of 29-3. The nation will face Finland on New Year's Eve in its final game of the preliminary round. First place could be on the line if Finland is able to beat Slovakia on Wednesday.

Switzerland, which has now lost its first three games of the tourney, will clash with Germany on Wednesday.

New Jersey Devils defenseman P.K. Subban and Olympic gold medal-winning skier Lindsey Vonn announced on Tuesday that their relationship has come to an end. The couple became engaged last August.

The pair shared pictures on Instagram, posting nearly identical messages declaring they will move forward separately.

"Lindsey is one of the most kind and caring people I know. I will always treasure our time as a couple together and the many laughs we shared," Subban wrote.

"After much consideration, we have decided to move forward separately. We will always remain friends and love each other immensely. We ask that you respect our privacy during this time."

The wedding, which Vonn recently said in an interview with Access Hollywood was originally scheduled for July, was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

When the Winnipeg Jets open training camp on Sunday, forward Jack Roslovic won't be present as he awaits word regarding his future with the club, his agent, Claude Lemieux, told the Winnipeg Free Press' Mike McIntyre.

The restricted free agent remains at home in Columbus, waiting to either be traded or given a new contract. The team has already explored trade possibilities, and if a deal doesn't come to fruition, Roslovic must sign a new contract to attend camp.

Lemieux said no progress has been made on either front. Even if a new pact is reached, Roslovic will need to quarantine for seven days upon re-entering Canada.

The Jets hold virtually no cap space, but they could open up some room by placing Bryan Little on the LTIR.

Roslovic, 23, posted career highs of 12 goals and 17 assists last season while primarily being deployed as a bottom-six forward and averaging 14:54 minutes per game.

The Edmonton Oilers signed forward Devin Shore and defenseman Ryan Stanton to professional tryouts, the team announced Tuesday.

Shore split last season between the Anaheim Ducks and Columbus Blue Jackets, tallying five goals and seven assists. A second-round pick by the Stars in 2012, Shore recorded 82 points in 209 games during his tenure in Dallas.

The 26-year-old is capable of playing down the middle, meaning he could compete with Jujhar Khaira and Gaetan Haas for the team's fourth-line center job.

Meanwhile, Stanton signed an AHL contract with the Bakersfield Condors. The 31-year-old has played in 120 career NHL games, with the last one coming in 2015-16 with the Washington Capitals. He spent last season with the Ontario Reign - the Los Angeles Kings' AHL affiliate.

The Buffalo Sabres signed center Riley Sheahan to a professional tryout, the team announced Tuesday.

The 29-year-old tallied 15 points in 66 games with the Edmonton Oilers last season. Sheahan spent parts of seven campaigns with the Detroit Red Wings before stops with the Pittsburgh Penguins and Florida Panthers.

The team expects Jack Eichel, Eric Staal, and Cody Eakin to lead the depth chart down the middle, meaning Sheahan will likely compete with Curtis Lazar for the team's fourth-line center role. Youngsters Casey Mittelstadt and Dylan Cozens are in the mix as well, but they will most likely start the season on the wing if they make the team.

Chicago Blackhawks captain Jonathan Toews will miss the start of the upcoming campaign with an undisclosed illness, reports TSN's Pierre LeBrun and Darren Dreger.

The team will reportedly make an announcement Tuesday.

Toews registered 60 points in 70 games last season while finishing 15th in Selke Trophy voting and also added five goals with four assists in nine postseason contests.

Chicago's center depth will be put to the test early, as the Blackhawks expect phenom Kirby Dach to miss the first four-to-five months after undergoing wrist surgery.

Dylan Strome, who remains an unsigned restricted free agent, is projected as the team's top center to begin the campaign, followed by offseason additions Carl Soderberg and Lucas Wallmark.
