Sights & Sounds From Islanders Training Camp Day 2, Group 2
Enjoy exclusive videos and pictures from New York Islanders beat reporter Stefen Rosner.
EAST MEADOW, NY — After the first group scrimmaged Friday morning, the second group hit the ice for what ended up being a two-hour skate.
Here’s some video footage of Bo Horvat and Anthony Duclair showing off some chemistry, Mathew Barzal, Casey Cizikas, and more!
But first, here are three takeaways from the skate:
Although the hype is about Barzal and Duclair’s chemistry, Horvat and the newcomer are really building some chemistry, executing often odd 2-on-1 odd-man rushes.
Matt Martin, who is at camp on a PTO, is healthy after suffering three injuries last year and has had no issues keeping up with the pace of the drills and the bag skates.
Patrick Roy is continuing to set the tone, bag skating the players and then having them continue to work, whereas other coaches would have the players head off after the skating drill.
