Kindel (lower body) will not participate in Tuesday's training camp session or feature against the Red Wings.
Kindel put up 17 goals and 18 assists, including 10 power-play points, in 77 regular-season games as a rookie last year. With more experience under his belt, the 19-year-old center should slot into a third-line role for the Penguins but could challenge for a bigger role as the season progresses.
