Ryan Nugent-Hopkins' shoulder is feeling good, but he's still in Edmonton working on strengthening it.

Nugent-Hopkins' shoulder has been bothering him, but he's been playing through it. Still, now that he's considering playing in the 2013 World Junior Championship, he's headed to Edmonton for a rehab stint before determining if he should play in the tournament. "I've been doing pretty well," Nugent-Hopkins said. "I've been getting checkups and doing some stuff around the rink and feeling good. The shoulder has been feeling good, it's just precautionary stuff, and we just want to be sure that it's 100% healthy and I'll make a decision from there."
