The Carolina Hurricanes began conditioning camp for its newest group of prospects on Sunday. A crowd numbering between 100-150 were on-hand to welcome the team's newest prospects to Raleigh and to the life of being in the NHL in Carolina. Though they didn't expect it, the young guys now know that Caniacs look forward to another exciting season of hockey with heightened expectations as a result of the draft and moves made during Free Agent Frenzy.
"I don't think any of us were expecting some of the Carolina fans here at a skate like this, but it was great. I'm sure some of the guys aren't even used to playing in front of a crowd like this, so it was a lot of fun." - Ryan Murphy - Carolina Hurricanes 2011 top draft pick
