Hockey is officially back! Okay, well, not really. The Hurricanes aren’t playing any scheduled games yet, but that will come on Monday evening in Washington D.C. as the ‘Canes take on the Capitals.
Between now and then, however, fans will be treated to the spectacle that is the first few days of an NHL training camp. Hope abounds all throughout the league, as young prospects will come in eager to blow the doors off, countless veterans will enter camp in the best shape of their lives (you’ll see a lot of this on Twitter), and goalies will have worked to make all the necessary changes to ensure that they are among the best at their craft.
