On the Beat: Do you Smolenak what the Rock is cooking?

What team beat writers are saying this afternoon:

  • New York Rangers head coach John Tortorella plans on testing his players physical fortitude early at training camp this season. Torts knows that the Rangers suffered from a Zherdevian work ethic for too much of last season and plans on setting the tone early.
  • The Anaheim Ducks may be heading into training camp free of controversy but there are still a myriad of question marks surrounding this team. Most important question: How big will Jean-Sebastien Giguere’s pads be this year?
  • Nashville Predators prospect Colin Wilson has been a one-man battering ram at rookie camp so far. Someone bought the early bird NFL Sunday Ticket package.
  • The Tampa Bay Lightning have signed 22-year-old Czech left winger Radek Smolenak to a one-year contract.
