Wisniewski, 32, said the main adjustment has been how Tampa Bay encourages its defensemen to jump in the rush, dubbing it "new-school hockey."
"For me it's harder," Wisniewski said. " A couple times I've done something and I'm like, 'Oh, that's my fault.' And they say, 'No, it's a great job; it's the forward's (responsibility).' Just never played that way before. But it takes some getting used to."

I see the rangers still have 47. Any other team have a large number remaining? I think most teams are close to 30 now
She had Autocorrected Brendan Perlini to Brendan Perkins and even though you'd think everyone could figure out who it was, this is the internet and everyone had to point it out, so she re-posted it and pulled the original.
Yeah, I was surprised by those, as well.I had no idea any of these guys were even in either of these teams' camps. As far as I can tell, none of them were on either teams' training camp rosters when they were announced.
Detroit is still at 50+, as well.Unless a small cut-list somewhere this past week, the Leafs are at 53
The expectation is some more cuts will come tomorrow though.
He is still in camp.Is Deangelo still there or was he sent down to Tucson earlier?
