The first time I was able to get into the locker room was an awesome experience. Everyone is carrying their bags in from whatever team they played for before the draft, looking around for the stall with your name on it. I was able to drop my bag, put my sticks on the rack and walk around to introduce myself to the new guys I hadn’t had the chance to meet at the draft and the veterans who would be leading our team forward. Quite a few familiar faces as I walked around, people you recognize from the combine and playing against some of them in youth.
As we started suiting up for the first day of training camp, you really got a chance to see some of the superstitions and traditions guys have. Couple guys that had to put their gear on a specific way, couple guys like me that are peculiar about how we tape our sticks, and another guy that looked like he doused his head in water before putting on his shoulder pads. All in all, the locker room is a great place here in Colorado, I’m excited to be here and do battle with the boys.
