Musketeers kick off main camp at IBP Ice Center
SIOUX CITY, Iowa (KCAU) – Sioux City kicked off its main camp at the IBP Ice Center, sparking a four-day evaluation period for players to perform in front of the Musketeers' coaches and front office staff.
Blending a mix of draft picks and tryout players vying for a spot on this season's roster, the first day of Musketeers main camp brought plenty of excitement as four teams took the ice during the session.
Battling alongside a few current Musketeers, Day One gave the staff a lot to evaluate as they work toward molding the final roster.
'We're looking for guys that are competitive hockey players, first and foremost. We really take to heart the blue collar mentality of Sioux City and in our community.,' Musketeers general manager Sean Clark said. 'We want a good, hard working group, first and foremost. I think for us, more than anything, it's really guys that can make plays, possess the puck, find their way to the interior of the ice and create scoring chances,'
'This year, we're trying to add some practices and put the guys in different situations so you can learn about how they process the games and board. I think we're off to a good start, one skate in,' Musketeers head coach Jason Kersner said.
Main camp at the IBP Ice Center ends on Saturday with the all-star festivities.
