Rookie mini-camp began yesterday in Brooklyn, making it the first to be held in the Islanders’ new home. Prospects were showcased in front of the media in their practice yesterday, and while the event should not be used to evaluate who will be making the team, there are always players who stand out on the ice.
Josh Ho-Sang, as usual, had the media’s attention yesterday with his play and scrum, and early impressions show some maturation since being drafted 28th overall last year. His scouting profile noted his questionable attitude, but he seems to be saying the right things to the media after practice.
