The 2009 Caps Summer Development Camp has come to an end. The Caps rookie draft picks, free agents and second year guys have completed another weeks worth of workouts and scrimmages.
Todays scrimmage was played in front of a packed house at the Kettler Capitals Iceplex. For the second year in a row the main rink was "sold out". People were standing five and six people deep along the boards. The players have all metioned through various interviews this week, that they have been suprised by the amount of specatators showing up for the workouts. There is nothing like hockey in July.
All of the players will be heading home to take a few days off before getting back out in the weight room or on the ice to prepare for their upcoming seasons. Most assuradly these guys will be ready to go come training camp in September for the big club, or their Junior or college clubs. They can all however take away one thing from this week in suburban DC, Washington is a hockeytown that loves its team.
