Camp Opens For Rookies
After an extended summer vacation as a result of missing the playoffs, the Rangers got back in action today. At least the rookies did, including the NHL experienced duo of Adam Sykora and Drew Fortescue. They joined twenty-five others as the preseason activities got under way.
The day consisted of on-ice activities directed by new Hartford coach Jay Leach, who was actively involved in giving feedback to the young prospects as they went through their first official drills of the season. Rangers head coach Mike Sullivan was also there, but only as an observer ahead of next Wednesday’s full Training Camp kick off.
