While Coyotes goaltender Adin Hill is used to wearing a mask on the ice, he was a little unfamiliar with wearing one in the weight room or anywhere else that wasn't inside the blue paint at Gila River Arena.
As Phase 2 of the NHL's Return to Play Plan went into action this week, various Coyotes players on Thursday took part in individualized training activities in small groups for the first time since the league postponed play in March.
"It was really refreshing to step back out on the ice and be back at Gila River with my teammates," Hill said in a conference call with reporters.
