Joni Pitkanen had a CT scan on his on his heel Thursday, but the Hurricanes won't have a prognosis until Monday.
He isn't expected to be available during training camp and Carolina GM Jim Rutherford said that Pitkanen could miss the beginning of the season as well. The team didn't know that Pitkanen was struggling with his rehabilitation, from a broken left heel bone, until a week ago. He is unable to put weight on it.
