DETROIT — Teemu Pulkkinen is looking for a fresh start as this year's training camp begins.
Pulkkinen underwent left shoulder surgery on June 6, the second time he has had surgery on that shoulder. He also had a procedure on his left shoulder in 2010.
"Last season I didn't feel so good with the shoulder," Pulkkinen said after the Wings skated at Joe Louis Arena Tuesday. "And at the end of the season I didn't play much, so I didn't know where we were are with the shoulder. After the season I went to the world championships and it was bothering me there.
