Jurco underwent surgery in late August and was scheduled to be out four-to-six weeks. He had four goals and two assists in 44 games last season.
Here are more updates from the first day of Red Wings training camp:
- Henrik Zetterberg, recovering from a knee injury that kept him out of the World Cup, will skate on his own and not practice with the team until he's fit.
- Niklas Kronwall, also recovering from a knee injury, will do the same as Zetterberg.
- Teemu Pulkkinen, recovering from shoulder surgery, has not yet been cleared for contact.
