A player will fight for positions on the ice, seek to win the eye of their coach, understand the responsibilities of their position, and become more proficient as a team player.

The second scrimmage ...

"It sucked," Tortorella said. "But the first group was good."

What did he say to wake up his players?

"I said it to them, not to you," Tortorella said.

Fair enough.

Training camp was overseen by the Philadelphia Flyers and John Tortorella at the Voorhees, NJ training facility.

In addition to the training camp scrimmage, season ticket holders were also able to watch the game.

The second scrimmage, however, had to be stopped because the team wasn't performing to Tortorella's expectations.

Those who participated in the second scrimmage had to face Tortorella personally and be given a wake-up call as the season is about to start.
