John Vogl of The Athletic: Thomas Vanek and Jason Pominville continue to skate and have committed to retirement just yet.
Pominville is skating in Buffalo.
“I’m still working out and skating as much as I can just to keep myself somewhat sharp,” Pominville said from Buffalo. “I don’t know if I’m really doing this for a reason, but I still feel like I owe it to myself in case something happens.”
Vanek is skating in Minnesota.
“Hockey is our passion,” Vanek said from Minnesota.
