Center Jarret Stoll’s participation in the Kings’ first on-ice session of training camp Sunday is questionable because he has arthritis in a knee, a wrist and both elbows, a team spokesman said Saturday.

Stoll’s status is day to day, the spokesman said.

The Kings reported to Toyota Center in El Segundo Saturday for physicals. The Ducks reported for physicals at their training facility, Anaheim Ice. Both teams will take to the ice on Sunday.

A Ducks spokesman said every player scheduled to report did, in fact, show up. The only question is whether center Ryan Getzlaf, who underwent sports hernia surgery in late July, will be limited in the early days of camp or if he will be allowed by the doctors to practice without restrictions.
