Jamie Benn will wait until he’s been re-signed before he starts working out with the Dallas Stars, according to the Dallas Morning News.

That might seem like an obvious statement, but it will impact him if he misses even a couple days of what will already be a short training camp. “We’ve had talks with Jamie for a year and a half, so we know the parameters,” Stars GM Joe Nieuwendyk said Tuesday. “We’ve made it clear to them that it is a priority for us, and I think Jamie knows we want him in camp. It’s important, but time will dictate whether it gets done.”
Benn did play in Germany during the lockout, so he has gotten a bit of work under his belt this season, which is more than most players can say.
