After playing four pre-season games over a five-day period at the start of training camp, the club was finally given a short break to focus more on fundamentals and less on gameplay. Head coach André Tourigny said: “The last four days are what we say to each other, the heart of the camp. “This is really the only time we have to practice and work on our fundamentals and make sure we have the same language and everything,” Tourigny said. The team’s remaining games – two against Vegas and one against the Vancouver Canucks – will be used to gauge the synergy between different players, both at equal strength and in special teams.
