Couture (groin) is continuing to work toward being fully fit for the 2024-25 campaign, with coach Ryan Warsofsky telling reporters Tuesday, "He's working extremely hard. He's in San Jose. He's been in San Jose. He's training. He's working out. I know he's feeling good, and I know when Logan is feeling good, we will let him play. We have a really good plan as an organization for Logan to get him back healthy," per Max Miller of The Hockey News.

Couture was limited to a mere six games last season due to his groin problem but appears to be trending in the right direction. What to expect out of the veteran center will be tricky after essentially losing a full season, but he did reach both the 20-goal and 55-point thresholds in each of the prior two campaigns. Assuming he is ready for Opening Night, Couture could shift to the wing in order to allow rookie Macklin Celebrini to feature at center on the top line.
