Well, I had a little time so I got some site work done. First you'll probably notice the banner. I'm not a graphic artist so I'm just trying what I can. Second I'll be using this post to test the comment sections, feel free to test it out as well. The biggest addition is the forums, or Phorums, LOL! They're still a work in progress but feel free to use them. I'm working on Twitter and Facebook integration.
Also, I'll be needing any Phantoms related photos, videos or artwork anyone may want to contribute. I'm open to article submissions as well. Drop me a line at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..

Some brief bits have come out about a couple current and former Phantoms and NHL training camps.
First, Nathan Walker has had a bit of puck luck. He's currently at the Washington Capitals camp. He's listed as part of Team C, which is mostly prospects and a few AHL guys. An injury to Brooks Laich, however, has him potentially playing as a wing on Team A, the top group. He'll be on a line with Troy Brouwer and Chandler Stephenson, another prospect who got promoted due to Mikhail Grabovski's visa issues.

Things didn't go as well for John Padulo. He was 3rd over all in points for the Phantoms in 2012-2013 and tied for 2nd for team assists but he was released yesterday as an amature tryout from the San Jose Sharks camp. I guess they're blind, he's a great agitator and has some pretty good hockey smarts.

A few Phantom players have shown up at NHL rookie/developmental camps and have popped up in the news as of lately
First off the Washington Post has a great article on Nathan Walker at the Washington Capitals developmental camp. I'd sure like to see Stormy be the first Aussie to play in the NHL but I'd sure like to see him back on the Phantoms bench this season. Last seasons leading goal scorer for the Phantoms, Sam Anas, is also at the Caps camp.

Update 9/10/13 6:27PM EST: Stormy made the initial Caps roster!
Next off: John Padulo, a villain with Muskegon two years ago with Muskegon turned hero last season, has been working hard on landing a spot on the San Jose sharks. They recently put up a video interview on their official site.
