It’s a common sight across the league this week to see newly acquired players joining their new teams on the ice for the first time. What’s not as common is that newly acquired player being the franchise’s all-time wins leader.
Checkers broadcaster Jason Shaya checks in each week with his 10 Thoughts - a series of observations about the team and the hockey world in general. This week: roster changes, crucial games at home and more.
The Checkers took the ice this morning for their first post-trade deadline practice, with two of the recent acquisitions joining the team for the first time this year.
The Checkers are likely to add yet another player via Carolina’s activity at the trade deadline, with forward Anthony Camara set to come over from the Boston Bruins organization as part of a trade involving John-Michael Liles.
