Tuesday’s on-ice activity once again began with divided skates in the morning, with the defense group taking the earlier session. The forward group, which skated first yesterday, took the ice later in the morning. The separate groups did not return to the ice for individual sessions in the afternoon as they had done on Monday. Instead, the day concluded with the first full scrimmage of camp.
The players were divided into two teams, White versus Black, and played two 35-minute periods with a running clock.
We nearly had fireworks just seconds into the first period when Liam Greentree, the Kings’ first round selection in Friday’s draft, nearly put Team White ahead. He stripped the puck from an unsuspecting defenseman immediately after the opening faceoff but was unable to score on a breakaway against 2023 fourth-rounder Hampton Slukynsky.
However, Team White did open the scoring several minutes later when a loose puck in front of the net was forced in past Slukynsky. That goal, scored with a mess of players in front of the net, was the only tally of the first period.
Jared Wright impressed for Team Black in the first period. He created multiple scoring chances that prompted good saves from the Kings’ newest goaltender prospect Carter George, who was drafted in the second round this year. George also denied forward Kaleb Lawrence on a penalty shot with a stick save.
