Here’s what Jason LaBarbera had to say about Terry Murray’s training-camp emphasis on defensive improvement…
“It’s huge. Obviously last year was tough at times, for everyone. We had breakdowns all over the ice, including myself. The biggest thing is that, as a whole group of guys, we have to be better and be more committed. Right from today, we’re already going over that kind of stuff, and that’s huge. I think last year, not everybody was on the same page with things and not everybody trusted each other. It got us in a lot of trouble. Right from day one, if we can get on the same page and everybody knows what each other’s roles are and understands what we’re supposed to do as a unit, we’re going to be all right.”
