| Panthers Team Report (Yahoo! Sports) |
| <p>The Panthers' goalie of the future has spent the final weeks of the summer tuning up for his first training camp, and even though Jacob Markstrom is slated to spend the year in the minors, the 20-year-old seems bound and determined to make a strong impression.</p>
<p>"I want to play for the Florida Panthers. I want to play in the NHL," said Markstrom, selected by the Panthers with the 31st overall pick in the 2008 draft. "They want me to play as well as I can over here and get here as quick as possible. You don't become a better goalie by sitting on the bench. I want to play in games and I want to win games. That keeps pushing me to be a better goalie. If they tell me to go to Rochester, that's how it is. |
