Penguins center Dustin Jeffrey is a few weeks ahead of schedule (knee surgery) and is confident of being able to compete for a roster spot in training camp. Jeffrey is expected to meet with team doctors in the first week of August, which will dictate a likely timeline and where he actually is. Jeffrey was not expected to be ready until somepoint at October.
