Among the group were new recruits from the draft.
Chris Armstrong, president of hockey operations, referred to them as an “amazing group of high-quality athletes” who have “bonded” in Park City after holding a training camp at the Park City Ice Arena. He made those comments at a press conference at the Delta Center on July 5.

I've lived in Park City for 30 years but right off the starting line, my journalism professors expressed plaudits after class for writing more so about the small-town sports in the surrounding mountains than the urban updates they assigned. Therefore, I’m on par punning and penning Parkites' pastimes. Turning high and early through my career, I’ve worked communications for The Olympics, the Paralympics and the Special Olympics. Additionally, there's been National Geographic, Patagonia, NCAA, USA Nordic and the United States Library of Congress, so I guess you could say this ain't my first rodeo.
