The annual rookie camp is now officially underway, and the Florida Panthers got off to a good start, picking up a 2-1 shootout victory over the Washington Capitals.
The tempo of the game was quick from the start, with both teams pressuring each other on the forecheck, and every player finishing their checks. The aggressiveness of the Cats players was encouraging to see, as they were able to bottle up Washington in their own end for good chunks of time.
Really liking the forechecking from the FLA rookies. WSH is having trouble on the breakout.
