Our long national nightmare is almost over and another sure sign that the hot, hot summer will be done soon: Wednesday marked the first time a couple of professional players got on the ice at UPMC Lemieux for an informal workout.
It’s only three players for now- Jake Guentzel, Chad Ruhwedel and Jack Johnson; led and organized by Jay Caufield, but at least they’re out there.
All the major media outlets have some water carrying, positive, happy happy articles on Johnson. He’s happy to be here! He’s smiling! He’s ordering food and being nice to fans!
