FOXBORO — They exist and Kevin Rooney is one of them: He’s among the minority who actually can’t wait for summer to end.
“I’m ready to go,” he said. “I want summer to be over.”
As was the case a year ago, Rooney is eager to get to Newark, N.J., for the Devils’ training camp. It’s different this time, though: The 24-year-old center from Canton, Mass., knows what to expect from an NHL camp, and he also knows he’s not going there merely to get cut, and then report to a minor-league camp.
