Jurco is doubtful for Saturday

DETROIT -- The good news is Tomas Jurco skated in practice Friday.

The bad news is he did not participate in all the drills, putting his status for Saturday's game in Buffalo in question.

"He didn’t go full full so I doubt it," Wings coach Jeff Blashill said.

Jurco, 23, left Thursday night's game against the Pittsburgh Penguins in the first period with an upper-body injury and did not return.

Jurco and Teemu Pulkkinen, who is recovering from a dislocated right shoulder, skated together and did some work with assistant coach Pat Ferschweiler.
