Jason Spezza skated on Thursday but he's still dealing with his "training camp injury." "I'm just dealing with a little bit of a strain, I want to make sure we take care of it so it isn't something that lingers," Spezza said. He might play in one of the Senators' split-squad matches against the Islanders on Sunday to close out the preseason, but only if his ailment has no chance of giving him an issue. The Ottawa captain insists that he'll be ready to play in the club's regular-season opener on Oct. 4 at Buffalo.
