Had the chance to attend the open practices of both Boston Fleet and Montreal Victoire at the kraken Community Iceplex.

A fun and enthusiastic crowd cheered on practice. Yes, we are in fact talking about practice.

Both coaches commented on how important it was to focus on business, the task at hand being an actual regular season game that counts in the standings as opposed to an exhibition.

Players commented they were really into how big the practice crowd was, and they all looked forward to the game and putting on a good show for a loud Seattle crowd.
