First, Elliotte Friedman of CBC Sports takes a great look at “the anatomy of a holdout,” with perspective from a general manager, agent and player about the mindset and strategies involved when a player doesn’t report to training camp.
Also, for those looking for a bit of good news within the Kings/NHL, I caught up with former Kings enforcer Ryan Flinn, who is now working as a firefighter in suburban Phoenix and is quite happy with his post-hockey life.
