"I trained this summer like I was going to training camp with a team, just to make sure that I was ready for when it happened," Stoll told The Columbus Dispatch. "... But it's up to me now to earn a spot and prove I deserve to be on the team. They've got some good young players. I have to beat out one, maybe two players on the roster if I'm going to make it, so there's a challenge there."
Stoll, 34, played last season with the New York Rangers before the Minnesota Wild claimed him off waivers on Dec.
