RICHMOND, Va. -- Training camp just started, and the Washington Redskins are already in no mood to mess with any kind of Achilles tendon injury.First-round pick Josh Doctson has been bothered by a sore left Achilles tendon since May and the problem hasnt gone away. So the Redskins on Thursday put the rookie wide receiver on the physically unable to perform list, not long after they lost outside linebacker Junior Galette for the season with another torn Achilles tendon has he prepared for camp.On the first day of workouts, it was clear the team is playing it ultra-safe with Doctson.Coach Jay Gruden said Doctson underwent a non-surgical treatment before training camp started Thursday. Theres no official time frame for the 22nd pick to get on the field with his teammates, though Gruden said the Redskins are going to hold him out for a little bit until hes fully healthy.We werent very satisfied with the way his Achilles was coming along. He still had a lot of soreness in the morning when hed wake up, Gruden said. I dont think hes very far away, but were being probably more cautious right now because it is a significant deal. The Achilles for a wide receiver with his explosion, we want it to be 100 percent. We dont want it to re-occur, so were trying to nip it in the bud right now.It has already been a rough road to the NFL for Doctson, who missed the final three games of his collegiate career at TCU, including the Alamo Bowl, with a broken wrist. When he fell to 22, the Redskins took him and envision him as a big piece of their future offense.Even though Doctson isnt in the mix early in training camp, getting him better is a long-term game plan, especially considering that DeSean Jackson and Pierre Garcon are free agents after next season. But with all the chatter about higher expectations coming off an NFC East title, the Redskins would like to get Doctson ready for the season opener Sept. 12 against the Pittsburgh Steelers.Doctson said hes listening to teammates and coaches who are telling him its a long process and is trying to be patient despite the Achilles tendon becoming a lingering issue.Its going to be a long year, so Ive got plenty of time, Doctson said. I heal fast. My first time really being injured was my senior year, and that was a broken wrist. Ive had hamstrings and stuff like that, but I always heal up quick, so Im not really worried about it.Its not anywhere near panic time for Doctson, who hasnt played in a game since Nov. 14 against Kansas. But Gruden joked that the staffs message to Doctson is: Be patient, but hurry up.Thursday was Doctsons first day of rehab for the injury, which first happened at rookie minicamp in May and was then aggravated during organized team activities. What started as a tweak has become a problem bad enough that Washington is slow-playing his health for now.Doctson watched the first day of camp from the sideline but is OK with the conservative approach.Everybody wants to play football, but you cant rush it, the 23-year-old said. I rushed it in OTAs and did what I did. Im just going to be patient this time.Doctson isnt concerned, and neither is quarterback Kirk Cousins, who also brushed off playing on the one-year franchise tag when a long-term deal couldnt get worked out. Cousins doesnt have a long-term deal but hes thinking long term when it comes to Doctson.Well be praying for Josh to get healthy as fast as possible, Cousins said. We do believe hes a great talent and can help us, so were excited not just for this week or next week but for the long haul of what he could for the Redskins.Game notesLG Shawn Lauvao (ankle), LB Perry Riley (foot), TE Derek Carrier (knee) and WR Reggie Diggs (knee) also went on the PUP list Thursday prior to the teams first workout. ...

This was no night to go to sleep.NEWARK, N.J. -- When the New Jersey Devils plucked PA Parenteau off waivers, they knew he was going to help them in shootouts.Hes done much more than that.Parenteau scored his fifth goal of the season and also connected in the shootout to give the Devils a 3-2 victory over the Carolina Hurricanes on Tuesday night.Before the start of the season, New Jersey grabbed Parenteau from the New York Islanders.It was just a matter of not seeing eye to eye with the Islanders, said Parenteau, who had 20 goals for Toronto last season. They gave me two or three games in camp. Ive turned the page and I am just happy to be here.Parenteau would not have had a chance in the shootout had not rookie Nick Lappin tied the game in third period. Cory Schneider also stepped up with 31 saves for the Devils, including an outstanding glove stop on Sebastian Aho with 1:48 left in the third period.Parenteau scored over Wards shoulder in the opening round of the shootout, and Taylor Hall finished it after Schneider stopped Jeff Skinner and Jaccob Slavin on the Hurricanes first two chances.They never told me I was going to go, Parenteau said after converting for the 20th time in 43 career shootout attempts. But I have been doing it in my career quite a bit, so I was happy to be the first guy going, and it was nice to get a goal there.Jordan Staal and defenseman Klas Dahlbeck scored for Carolina. Cam Ward was outstanding in making 39 saves, including a 1-on-1 stop against Travis Zajac in the waning seconds of the 5-minute overtime.We can take some good things out of it, Staal said. There are still little things to work on to get better, and thats what we are going to do.Lappin tied the game 2-all at 3:51 of the third period with his first NHL goal. Ward stopped Sergey Kalinin on a power move to the net, but Lappin swatted the rebound under thhe goalie.ddddddddddddCarolina appealed the goal because Vernon Fiddler was in the crease and his skate prevented Ward from blocking the net with his stick. The goal stood after a long review.It was an unbelievable feeling, Lappin said. I got a little nervous when they started reviewing it. I wasnt sure what was going to happen. Thankfully, they called it a good goal.Outplayed badly and down 1-0 after 20 minutes, the Hurricanes woke up in the second period, getting a power-play goal from Staal and a rare one from Dahlbeck.Staal tied the game at 4:23 with Mike Cammalleri in the penalty box for hooking. Slavin carried the puck into the zone and skated into the right circle. He somewhat whiffed on a pass, but the puck found Staal alone at the corner of the net.Dahlbeck, acquired on waivers from Arizona before the start of the season, gave Carolina a 2-1 lead with 2:29 left in the period on a wrist shot from the left boards that found the top of the net. It was his first goal of the season and first in 69 games, dating to Oct. 26, 2015.Ward kept the Hurricanes in the game in the first period, stopping 18 of 19 shots. Parenteau beat him with a shot under the crossbar after taking a backhand pass from Zajac on an odd-man rush.Game notesHall got his 200th career assist on Parenteaus goal. ... Carolina has played nine of its 12 games on the road. ... This was the second of four games between the teams this season. ... Play was stopped twice in the first period by inadvertent horns. ...
