Red Wings Training Camp Day One Notes & Interviews

Training Camp is finally underway, and it has a new format and feel to it this year. One big change is a move from 5 on 5 practices, to special teams and special situation focus, things the Wings need a lot of work on. Today was powerplay and penalty kill scrimmages, while Saturday will focus on 4 on 4 and 3 on 3 scrimmages. Special teams are one of the harder things to get back into the groove of after an offseason, and the Wings power play left much to be desired when it was “on”. We can’t put much stock in who got PP and PK time, because everyone did, and there are a lot of players at camp.
