First Practice in the Books

[FDNY99]

Here is an article from the Courant this morning written by Mike Anthony. I like Cav's approach to building the team his way. With 11 new players on the roster (10 freshman and Soph BC transfer EvanRichardson) there will be growing pains...BUT Cav can build the team his way, and run his system.

Few high lights:

-Kasperi Ojantakanen, a freshman forward, will not be eligible for the first four games of the season and will make his debut Oct. 25 at Vermont. Ojantakanen, of Helsinki, Finland, played for a team that included professional players last season. Huskies defenseman Joona Kunnas, now a sophomore, found himself in the same situation last season. Kunnas, of Vantaa, Finland, sat four games before playing making his debut and playing the final 32 games of the 2013-14 season

-Hockey East media day will be held Monday in Boston. The Courant will be there to fill you in on this and that from around the Huskies' new conference.
