North Stars shaking off the rust at camp
Each of the four teams in North Stars training camp now have two games under their belt following what was a very long Thursday at the Civic Centre for players and staff.
Head coach Brandon Heck is pleased with the progression he has seen.
“The games were more emotional as they went on, so that’s a good sign and the vets are doing a good job of leading the way,” Heck said on Thursday evening after the last of four games on the day. “There’s been a few surprises good and bad. You’re going to have to come to the intra-squad game [on Saturday] to pick them out yourself, but it’s early on so we’re not going to panic about anything or get too excited.”
For some players, including returning forwards Troy Gerein and Connor McIntosh, there was no denying there was some rust to shake off.
