Our latest video from Day 2 at training camp is up and ready to go, on the heels of six players being assigned this afternoon from Washington. Two more days of on-ice practice this week await on Wednesday and Thursday before the boys will play three preseason games in as many nights starting Friday night at home against Wilkes-Barre/Scranton.
