Long Rest Good For Ducks

from Dan Wood at Ducks Blog,
Last summer flew by even faster, of course, because every member of the Ducks was accepting handshakes and pats on the back, attending celebratory gatherings and enjoying their individual days with the Cup. By the time training camp, and the regular season, rolled around, the club was nowhere near emotionally or physically ready to get back to the grind that is life in the NHL.
The contrast now is striking. While Ducks fans are growing increasingly impatient as they await some hockey action, most players are still at least a couple of weeks away from getting back on the ice in preparation for camp. By the time they arrive at Anaheim Ice next month, the Ducks will be in much better shape, physically and mentally, than a year earlier.
