Brad Treliving on Jani Hakanpaa’s status after being placed on LTIR: “Jani is taking a little bit of time yet, but I think he is going to have an impact”

How do you feel about your team as you embark on a new season?

Treliving: We are excited about it. I thought it was a hard camp. I thought we were well organized. There was lots of competition — not just on the roster, but there is a new coaching staff, and people are finding their way within the team with ice time, roles, and linemates.

Like 31 other guys right now, everybody is undefeated. I am excited about the group and excited to get going.

Does this year feel different than any other for you, and if so, why?
