Team Canada Orientation Camp: Day 2
27 August 2009
The second day of Orientation Camp is complete and we saw the same determination, training, skill and passion that was so abundantly displayed on Day 1. With the Team Canada jersey still up for grabs, the players pushed themselves well beyond their limits for a coveted spot on the Team Canada bench.
Here’s more exclusive behind-the-scenes pics in and around the Saddledome.
Robyn shows his Nike Trainer 1 MMX’s are not only great for training, but also good for a trip to the breakfast table. Giv'er.
The Olympic hopefuls stretch together to kick off the morning practice.
Building team unity is key if players want to win a spot on the team.
Phaneuf looks on and sizes up the defensive competition. This is where the daily commitment to training really pays off.
The forward line that strikes fear into the hearts of defencemen. This line is designed for one thing and one thing only. Victory.
Iginla shows why agility training is so important as he bursts over the boards. The Dukes of Hazzard have nothing on Jarome.
Dion takes the puck and starts his way up ice. What’s it like having Dion skating towards you at full speed? Like stepping in front of an 18-wheeler. This is what a summer spent working on power and speed looks like.
Press from across Canada squeeze together for camp updates and a glimpse inside the camp. This just shows what hockey means to Canadians.
