The praise for Johnny Gaudreau – with NHLFlames GM Brad Treliving saying the star has 'never looked better' — is just one of the many current storylines across NHL training camps. EmmySadler breaks down what you need to know on Day 4 ⤵️
The playoffs bring pressure for every team contending, but perhaps none more this year than the Calgary Flames.
Head coach Geoff Ward hadn’t been able to go into any details when pressed earlier this week, but said Thursday that he’s been really pleased with Gaudreau’s performance so far in camp. “With all of our players, we couldn’t be more happy with the conditioning levels that they’ve come to camp in. So any thought that people are skating with certain people because they’re in trouble or didn’t do what they’re supposed to do is not correct. It’s 100 per cent incorrect,” he said. “We’ve had to separate our groups because of circumstances, and we’re taking every precaution needed. I will leave it at that.
“Johnny Gaudreau has never looked better,” Treliving said, adding that he couldn’t speak highly enough about the work level No. 13 has put in over the hiatus.
