Smid thinks he is ready. UPD: Hopes to be cleared for mid October
Pretty much confirms the reports from Winsport:

“From my point of view, I feel pretty much ready,” Smid said after a session with a collection of pros at the WinSport facility at Canada Olympic Park. “I’ve been skating the past almost four weeks, training all summer and don’t feel I’m behind anything. I can base myself against the guys who’ve been here all summer and feel I’m where I want to be, but it depends on what the doctors think.
“I don’t want to get my hopes up, but I’m hoping. I want to be positive and hope the news is going to be good and I’m going to be ready, but if not, you don’t want to play until it’s ready.
“I’ll keep training and go when the doctors give me the green light.”
The next step in his return to action is a visit to doctors in California next week.
