Predators defenseman P.K. Subban is day-to-day with an upper-body injury, the team announced Friday. He'll be reevaluated following Nashville's preseason opener at Florida on Tuesday.

The Predators haven't begun practicing, with their first session of training camp scheduled for Saturday morning. Subban won't participate in those group sessions for at least the next few days.

"I've just been a little bit sore lately, so we're just going to take our time and make sure," Subban said Friday. "I came in a couple days to skate early. Just a little bit sore, so we're going to see how I feel."

Subban missed the final 14 games of last season because of a neck injury.

Predators defenseman Ryan Ellis is also day-to-day with an upper-body injury, leaving Nashville without all four of its top defensemen entering training camp. Roman Josi and Mattias Ekholm are currently playing in the World Cup of Hockey.
